Objective/Outline

▪ Objective ▪ Using BML for Training in a Comprehensive Training

Environment

▪ Specific: Training of medium and small tactical staff units

(battalion size / company size)

▪ Research aimed at a commercial product (WISE). ▪ Improvement of SAAB's VBMS (TVT/SLB). ▪ Outline ▪ Motivation ▪ Interoperability and Integration ▪ BLACK-CACTUS an example ▪ Summary and way ahead

Motivation

▪ Systems needs to be interconnected ▪ Multi-lateral missions ▪ Teams are configured for the mission at hand ▪ Agencies from several nations ▪ There is a vast number of potential scenarios and

configurations

Interoperability & Integration

Application Centric Shared Protocol Interface Centric

But…

▪ Next Generation Training Systems require fast integration of

systems…and communication protocols will continue to evolve, so how is it possible to achieve information interoperability over time?

▪ By Focusing on the information flow between systems – not

individual communication standards, protocols or software platform

▪ By making it possible to ”connect” information from different

systems regardless of communication standards and protocols

▪ By Making it possible to control the information flow between

connected systems.

Progress report of BLACK-CACTUS is as follows: ▪ Completed: ▪ The BML Wise Driver for Advance order and Block Task order ▪ BattleTEK Wise Driver for Land Movement Order, Flight Order and

Air Strike Order.

▪ The parser in C2LG GUI which generates Advance Task Order and

Block Task Order in an XML format Validated by new BML schema

▪ The client server mechanism which allows Order generated in C2LG

GUI to be picked up by Wise BML Driver

▪ To do: ▪ Command agent. ▪ Conversion of Map Data from RT90 coordinate system to Lat Long

co-ordinate system.

▪ Including Air Strike Orders in C2LG GUI, parser and BML Wise

Driver.

Summary

 The BLACK-CATCUS

demonstration showed the capability to give, receive and present orders using operational C2 system using a commercial integration environment.

 BLACK-CATCUS used BML (C2LG)

statements sent to and from an

perational C2 system that does not

internally implement BML.

 Show the ability to real-time simulation

without changing the interfaces in any of the systems

 C2 Operators can use their own C2

systems to run simulations
