2 Agenda JTLS Version 5.0 JTLS FY17 FY18 Enhancements Joint Training Synthetic Environment (JTSE) Current Vision JTSE Operational Outcome JTLS Program Support to JTSE / Joint Training Tools (JTT) 2

3 JTLS Version 5.0 Coming Soon! Joint Staff J7 Will Insure JTLS 5.0 is: Secure Stable Reliable Relevant 3

4 FY17-18 JTLS Enhancements New weapon system representation to include, but not limited to: Laser Technologies Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Unmanned Surface & Subsurface Water Vehicles JTLS graphical user interfaces (GUI) and web capabilities. User to select various map inputs or visualization of screen terrain and objects such as found using GeoTIFF (GeoTIFF is a public domain metadata standard which allows geo-referencing information to be embedded within a TIFF file). JTLS Web Hosted Interface Program (WHIP) capable of displaying and interacting with multiple sides and/or factions within the simulation scenario (Super WHIP). 4

5 FY17-18 JTLS Enhancements More efficient capability for the user to easily access and/or request reports, data, and other information captured in the JTLS AAR repository. Complete the development of the integrated Joint Master Scenario Event List (JMSEL) tool. Capable of JTLS standalone use, as well as, capable of exporting and importing files, data, or information with the current JS J7 JMSEL and the Training Environment Manager (TEM) used with JS J7 Joint Training Tools (JTT). Re-design of the JTLS Combat System Prototype (CSP) data/information into a repository concept. 5

6 Joint Training Synthetic Environment (JTSE) Current Vision A JTSE toolset that enables accurate, timely, relevant and affordable education, training, exercises, and mission rehearsal in support of current and future Combatant Command and Service readiness priorities. Support interoperability/integration among DoD/mission partner simulations Maximize ease of use easy enough for direct use by military audience Scale to support multiple simultaneous users/events Provide on-demand M&S services delivered via web-browser Reduce costs associated with development and support of new/improved functionality Simplify provisioning and use of training capabilities to both trainers and training event participants Replicate the desired operational environment Mitigate fair fight conflicts (e.g., using the techniques described in NATO/STO 6 technical report TR-IST-094, Framework for Semantic Interoperability).

7 JTSE Operational Outcome Commanders and trainers will develop, maintain, and assess readiness by using the JTSE to: Support the full spectrum operations of Joint, interagency, and multinational Enable the rapid and efficient execution of Joint Event Life Cycle (JELC) Enable the training audience to exploit their organic capabilities and collaborate within and across LVC training domains Conduct events in the same battle space regardless of physical location Preserve the art component of people training people Promote functional Interoperability with mission partners Expand the scope of the traditional command post exercise (CPX) beyond Phase II (Seize the Initiative) and Phase III (Dominate) of joint operations 7

10 Support for JTSE / JTT Multi-year effort to use JTLS software to design, develop, prototype and operationalize software for JTSE Joint Training Tools (JTT). Air Campaign Generator (ACG) service. The ACG service will be used to schedule sorties by determining airframe, aircraft location, areas denied, refueling availability, squadrons available, sorties, targets and when the squadrons are available. Continue to develop the Air Tasking Order Generator (ATOG) and an Air Tasking Order Translator (ATOT) as an interface with the JTSE Runtime Database (RTDB) through an Application Programming Interface (API). ATOT will translate a complete ATO and Airspace Control Order (ACO) for execution by a simulation or modular service. JTLS integration with JTSE Joint Training Tools such as Terrain Generation Service, Force Management Service and others, as they become available. 10

12 Points of Contact Don Weter, CIV Joint Staff J7 Program Manager Comm: (757) DSN: Larry Hose General Dynamics Joint Staff J7 JTLS Project Coordinator Comm: (757) DSN: Paul E. Creal Defense Analyst Associate Booz / Allen / Hamilton Supporting Joint Staff J7 JTLS Project Management Comm: (757) paul.e.creal.ctr@mail.mil 12

13 Lines of Effort (LOE) Concept: Organize the projects into logical groupings (lines of effort) in order to conceptualize what capability they provide and their relationship with the Joint Training Synthetic Environment. 1. Event Management (capabilities to specifically enhance or automate the management and synchronization of an event) 2. Scenario Development & Synthetic Environment (capabilities to develop integrated scenario products) 3. Role-Player & User Presentation (tools to allow military audience to directly use simulation throughout the JELC for planning, training, learning on demand via the web) 4. Data Model, Data Services, and Data Repository (simulation and data manipulation to ingest/modify/correlate data for simulation use) 5. Simulation Services (modular services to replicate the Joint environment) 6. Training & Knowledge Management (KM services required for Joint training) 7. Cloud & Technical Infrastructure (efforts to prepare sims for use in virtual cloud environment) 8. Joint, Service, Coalition, Agency M&S Integration (Service simulations & architecture legacy systems) Note: LOEs are not prioritized. Numerical designation is only for purpose of grouping. 13 JTSE WG
