• Environment Layer– Common Terrain
• Presagis Terrain Generation – Phase 1– Air Corridors, Rail, Roads, Rivers, Shorelines, National
Boundaries, Gridded Terrain– Smooth Movement– Move Away From Hex Terrain Representation– Web-Based Request and Static Terrain Delivery For JTLS
• Presagis Terrain Generation – Phase 2– Web-Based Requested and Streamed Terrain For JTLS
JTLS SOA Status

• Environment Layer (Con’t)– Weather Service – Ready To Implement– NCBR Service – Ready To Implement– Minefield Service
• Ready To Implement– Movement Impact– Damage During Movement Impact
• Not Ready To Implement– Clearing– Laying
JTLS SOA Status

• Environment Layer (Con’t)– Sea State Service – Not Currently Useful– Ocean Environment
• Partially Ready To Implement• Major Effort
– Satellite Service• Operational• Part Of Our Service Investigation
JTLS SOA Status
26 July 2012 ROLANDS & ASSOCIATES Corporation 6
• JTLS-2012-11382– Satellite Service
• Creates Realistic Orbits– When and Where It Enters Theater– When and Where It Leaves Theater
• Database Format• Read Order File Format
– Satellite Moves Across Theater• Can Detect Like Any Other Air Mission
Investigate SOA
December 2012 ROLANDS & ASSOCIATES Corporation 7
• Wargaming Layer– Generally
• Ready To Implement Any Desired Service• Difficult Challenges To Overcome
– Communication Between Services– Cause And Effect Relationships Between Services
– Maintenance Service• Started Investigation• Requires Government Addresses Challenges
JTLS SOA Status
26 July 2012 ROLANDS & ASSOCIATES Corporation 8
• Interface Layer– JTLS Is Already Using SOA
• Admittedly Our Interface Is JTLS Specific
JTLS SOA Status
26 July 2012 ROLANDS & ASSOCIATES Corporation 9
• C2 Interface– Moving To Our Service Environment
• JTLS Operational Interface (JOI)– Feeds: OTH-Gold, Link-16
• JTLS Transactional Operational Interface (JTOI)– Feeds: TBMCS, ICC, NEC-CCIS (Norway)
– TACELINT Service• Being Implemented• Part Of Our Service Investigation

• Current Method– CEP Generate TACELINT Messages
• Written To Disk• MDP Forwards To C4I System
– Thousands Need To Be Generated• Simply Unworkable As Is
• Plans– Have Service Generate TACELINT
JTLS 2008-10001Feed TACELINT To C4I
December 2012
ROLANDS & ASSOCIATES Corporation 12
• Plans (Con’t)– Service
• Connected To JODA• Takes Emitting Radars
– Generates TACELINT– Can Determine When SAM Site Locks On
» Change Pulse Rate – Indicator For C4I System
– Model• No Longer Generates TACELINT• WHIP Shows Emitting Objects
JTLS 2008-10001Feed TACELINT To C4I

• Input– Satellite Service
• Output– TACELINT Service
• Two-Way Interaction– Maintenance Service

• Obviously– Start Service Integration
• Requires Government– Identification– Definiton
• Not Particularly Difficult For JTLS– Already Using Service Oriented Architecture– Well Defined And Strict Coding Standards
SOA Way Forward
26 July 2012 ROLANDS & ASSOCIATES Corporation 14
• Simulation On Demand– Most Important Advantage Of SOA
• Leads To Cost Savings– Reduce Computer Resources– Reduce IT Support– Reduce Infra-Structure Requirements
» Physical (Building)» Consumption (Electrical, Air Conditioning, Etc)
SOA Way Forward
26 July 2012 ROLANDS & ASSOCIATES Corporation 15
• Simulation On Demand (Con’t)– Most Important Advantage Of SOA (Con’t)
• Leads To Ease Of Use– Centralize Database Development– Collaborative Exercise Coordination Environment
» PACOM APAN Environment– Centralize Model Execution
SOA Way Forward
26 July 2012 ROLANDS & ASSOCIATES Corporation 16
• Simulation On Demand (Con’t)– McGraw Hill Case Study
• Grade Standardized Student Testing• High Computer Resources – Short Period Of Time
– Amazon Commercial Cloud Virtual Environment– Within Minutes - Request Virtual Machine
» Amount Of Memory» Operating System» Pay Only From Request Time To Release Time
SOA Way Forward
26 July 2012 ROLANDS & ASSOCIATES Corporation 17
• Simulation On Demand (Con’t)– Attempted To Use Cloud Environment
• Moved JTLS Documentation To Cloud• Became Apparent
– Both Data and Software Needed To Be On Cloud
– Investigated And Used Automated Model Control• Used During Australian Exercise• Checkpoints, Shadow Game Control Were Automated

Given Proper Tools
- Once Person Can Manage Four Games
• Issues– Classification Issues
• Commercial Data Center Not Feasible• Government Data Center Needs To Be Funded
– To Maximum Cost Savings– Needs To Be DoD Centralized Capability
» Not Just Modeling And Simulation / Exercise Support– Compartmentalization Issues
– Opposite Of Current Government Direction
SOA Way Forward
26 July 2012 ROLANDS & ASSOCIATES Corporation 20
• Suggestion / Proposal– Develop Simulation On Demand Capability
• Use JTLS As Demonstration Capability
– Select Unclassified Exercise• PANAMAX (2014)• Develop and Demonstrate SOA Tools / Execution
– Advantages• Decision Makers Can Better Understand Concept• Learn From Mistakes / Successes
