Military Problem

• MS not keeping pace with complexity of
  operations, e.g., Irregular Warfare, to
  experiment, test and train
• Need tools to better understand the non-kinetic
  battle space
• Inability to rapidly, accurately realistically
  simulate real world environment
• MS activities not configured to enable efficient
  support for USJFCOM overall mission

We are only Evolving our simulation capability
while the world is transforming

Vision Statement
USJFCOM will lead the Department of Defense in
efficiently and effectively implementing a Global
Synthetic Environment solution that enables Joint
Capability Development.

• The Global Synthetic Environment
• A persistent, globally distributed,
• multi-faceted, synthetic environment
• Accurate, realistic, and re-usable
• representations
• LVC data, architecture and standards
• Adaptable to changes within todays
• battlespace
• Integrated with Joint Knowledge
• Online
• Operational systems enabled

Initial Conclusions

• Initial Study recommends J7 and J9 MS Program
  Alignment under a single center with dual
  ownership under a board arrangement.
• Follow on study develop four areas of
  coordination for Initial Operating Capability
  (IOC) in 2008/2009
• Global Synthetic Environment evolutionary
  development and ops
• Aligned Architecture and data strategy
• Transformational MS including High perf
  Computing
• Aligned Technical Management Process
• Need to align activities now and improve through
  operational experience gained.

Improves USJFCOM position of leadership through
MS advocacy

Benefits

• Improved MS Capability
• Irregular Warfare/Cyber/CBRNE/INTEL, etc
• Improved Operating Efficiency, one environment
  for Experimentation, Test and Training
• Improved ability to transition new capabilities
  to operational status
• Higher fidelity terrain
• More realistic representation
• Improved Management Leadership
