A detailed interactive simulation system for developing command and control systems

Abstract

The Dynamic Ground Target Simulation (DGTS) system is a real-time interactive simulation system which produces detailed scenarios of military unit activity. DGTS is composed of three subsystems: a Model Construction Subsystem, which uses a Pascal-based discrete event simulation language, a Data Preparation Subsystem, and a Scenario Generation Subsystem, which executes a model according to a specific set of orders and allows it to be interactively manipulated. DGTS has been used to generate scenarios of varying size and scope.
