The Department of Defense doctrine of “train as you would fight” exemplifies the military’s focus on training as a key component in the preparation of today’s warfighter. The positive result of implementing this doctrine has been clearly demonstrated. The costs of implementing training programs, however, have been high. Simulations have historically supported this training by augmenting and sup...

I t has been previously demonstrated (1) tha t the fluid phase inactivation of human second component of complement (C2) by activated human first component (CI) is markedly enhanced in the presence of homologous fourth component (C4), whereas heterologous C4 is inhibitory 1. This process was found to involve enzymatically active CI and the hemolyticaUy inactive product of its action on C4, C4i....

This paper discusses the interoperability of military simulation systems in an AUSCANNZUKUS context. It reviews the current state of simulation system interoperability efforts in international forums such as the CCEB and ABCA Armies, and in the US DoD. The generic requirements for simulation systems to interoperate with other simulations and C4I systems are discussed, and some “candidate” inter...

The ability to interface C4I systems with simulations represents a powerful approach for analyzing complex military plans, and generating appropriate courses of action. The simulations provide a context of the real world, in which the plan can be exercised, “what-if’s” can be performed, and intelligent courses of action can be generated. To build more “intelligence” in our ability to generate c...
