TEMO Way Ahead

• v3.0
• TEMO Assessment
• Constructive Focus

• v4.0
• Virtual Focus
• Replace CCTT SAF
• Replace AVCATT SAF

• v5.0
• Constructive Focus
• Requirements Process Ongoing
• Target for TEMO Validation
• Begin JLCCTC Integration

• v6.0
• JLCCTC Integration

TEMO Assessment of OneSAF v3.0

• The National Simulation Center will conduct an
  Assessment of OneSAF v3.0
• Functional Assessments are not defined in DA Pam
  5-11. They are executed to provide feedback to
  the material developer on the status of a given
  simulation
• We will be operating a single OneSAF scenario
  with threads/vignettes running in different
  geographically separate maneuver areas
• Focus of testing will be on evaluating ordered
  behaviors. Multiple behaviors will be evaluated
  in each thread test and vignette.
• Training (13-17 Jul)
• Technical Testing (throughout the event)
• Thread Testing (week one, 20-24 Jul)
• Vignette Testing (week two, 27-31 Jul)
• Brigade Scenario (week three, 3-7 Aug)

Tests for the TEMO Assessment of OneSAF v3.0

• Written by NSC Personnel
• Reviewed by PM prior to testing
• We only test functionality that the PM agrees is
  working
• Example Thread Tests Functional groupings of
  Orderable Behaviors
• Attack a Position, Casualty Handling, Fire
  Support, Cross Rivers and Gaps, Assault/Clear a
  Building, etc.
• Example Vignettes Platoon and Company size
  scenarios in a tactical setting
• Air Assault, Combined Arms Breach, Logistics
• Brigade Scenario
• Offense, Defense, Cordon and Search
• Same scenario as WARSIM ORE

5
Virtual Focus for OneSAF v4.0

• TEMO requirements for v4.0 focused on integration
  with SE Core in order to replace CCTT SAF and
  AVCATT SAF.
• Provide required modeling/effects
• Provide consistent shared view between
  Constructive Virtual - Common Environment
• Replace CCTT and AVCATT SAFs
• Provide a Fair Fight

6
OneSAF v5.0 is TEMO Target for Validation

• Functional Validation is defined in DA Pam 5-11
  as a rigorous and structured process of
  determining the extent to which a simulation
  accurately represents the intended real world
  phenomena from the perspective of the intended
  use (DA Pam 5-11, Para. 3-3).
• TEMO intended use is to run a Brigade Warfighter
  Exercise
• Test procedures will be similar to the v3.0
  Assessment
• First step toward integration into JLCCTC
• TEMO Refocus on Constructive Requirements
• P3I process is ongoing

7
TEMO Prerequisite Threshold Requirements

• Seven Threshold System-level Requirements
• BCT WFX
• Usability
• Models Behaviors
• After Action Review
• User Documentation
• Terrain
• Ability to Federate w/Constructive and Virtual
  simulations/simulators

8
OneSAF v6.0 Integration into JLCCTC

• Once OneSAF passes the TEMO Validation, focus
  will be on integration into JLCCTC
• Start integration with v5.0
• Full integration with v6.0
• Ground maneuver driver in ERF (Entity Resolution
  Federation)
• Entity-level ground maneuver driver in MRF-W
  (Multi-Resolution Federation WARSIM)
