New Command and Control – Simulation Interoperation Standard

NATO Modelling and Simulation Group has conducted an extensive partnership with the Simulation Interoperation Standards Organization (SISO), aimed at standards-based interoperation of command and control information systems (C2IS) with military simulations. Their shared vision is that on day zero of future coalition operations, military components from participating nations will connect their C2IS and simulations over a shared network, where each nation’s force uses the C2lS with which it has trained and the whole coalition can share results from all the national simulations for training, course of action analysis, and mission rehearsal. SISO has just approved a new set of standards called C2SIM that enable this major step forward, while STO activity Operationalization of Standardized C2-Simulation Interoperability is concluding after conducting extensive distributed testing of that standard in the Coalition Warrior Interoperability Exercise CWIX 2019. The work, which is described in a new video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkfqKBzUuf8, included integrated initialization and groundbreaking use of extensible, layered ontologies with automatic transformation to Extensible Markup Language (XML) for execution. The team conducted a final distributed exercise to validate C2SIM military utility, involving France, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Sweden, UK, and USA, based out of the NATO Modelling and Simulation Centre of Excellence in Rome, Italy.
