Improving Integrated Operation in the Joint Integrated Mission Model (JIMM) and the Simulated Warfare Environment Data Transfer (SWEDAT) Protocol

摘要

The Simulated Warfare Environment Data Transfer (SWEDAT) is a shared memory interface currently managed by the Joint Integrated Mission Model (JIMM). It allows integrated operation of resources whereby the JIMM threat environment, stimulators virtual cockpits, systems under test, and other agents are combined within the same simulation exercise. The Air Combat Environment Test and Evaluation Facility (ACETEF), the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) Program, and other agencies use it extensively for both constructive analyses and real- time installed system test. Since its creation JIMM and SWEDAT have been enhanced to improve capability and performance. More recent improvements include message queues, alternative coordinate systems, and dynamic simulated system control. This paper will describe the SWEDAT architecture recent improvements, and planned efforts to further performance.
