TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that simulation-based acquisition is a smarter way of doing business than traditional traditional traditional acquisition techniques and present a case study of simulation based acquisition in the defense domain.
Abstract: : Program Managers have long been applying modeling and simulation tools to efforts within the various stages of their programs. Recently, declining defense budgets have increased the pressure on the acquisition community to find cheaper ways to develop and field systems. The objective of this book is to convince program managers that Simulation Based Acquisition is a smarter way of doing business.

TL;DR: The Laboratory developed the architecture concepts covering the operational, system, and technical views that would promote interoperability and reuse of models and simulations that are integrated across acquisition phases and programs.
Abstract: In 1997 the Acquisition Council of the Department of Defense Executive Council for Modeling and Simulation adopted a vision for Simulation Based Acquisition (SBA): "an acquisition process in which DoD and industry are enabled by robust, collaborative use of simulation technology that is integrated across acquisition phases and programs." Subsequently, a Joint Task Force was chartered to develop an SBA road map. As part of the Task Force, the Laboratory developed the architecture concepts covering the operational, system, and technical views that would promote interoperability and reuse of models and simulations.

TL;DR: This two-part series addresses the much expanded role for M&S that is due to the prospect that evolutionary and adaptive engineering efforts are the wave of the future.
Abstract: Simulation and modeling are major assets in the engineering of systems of all types. This two-part series addresses the much expanded role for M&S that is due to the prospect that evolutionary and ...

TL;DR: The author examines one powerful example of simulation-based acquisition implementation in the American and British Joint Strike Fighter Aircraft Program.
Abstract: : Information technology is creating more realistic, more capable, and more diversified simulation tools. These tools have been applied to a range of ongoing product development programs with an increasing diversity of applications. Phenomenal reductions in development time, life-cycle costs, and improved system quality are reported from these new opportunities. In contrast to simply networking more and more computers and software together in ever-increasing capability, entirely new approaches are emerging. One overarching approach within the Department of Defense (DoD) is simulation-based acquisition (SBA). It is the proactive use of simulation and information technologies to rapidly advance all elements of the product development process. It is capturing more elements of industry every day and has the potential to revolutionize product development all over again. The author examines one powerful example of simulation-based acquisition implementation in the American and British Joint Strike Fighter Aircraft Program.

TL;DR: A review of some current MLS approaches for HLA/RTI simulations to illustrate the deficient multi-level secure (MLS) components in HLA and present options for a secure HLA interface built at the network layer.
Abstract: The United States Department of Defense (DoD) has, over the past several years, emphasized the need to employ simulation based acquisition (SBA) in engineering and development. Distributed simulation introduces an information assurance challenge and details of a simulation must be guarded from unauthorized access. The High Level Architecture (HLA) and its run-time interface (RTI) do not define support of mandatory access controls (MACs) or discretionary access controls (DACs) required to provide necessary protection levels. We review of some current MLS approaches for HLA/RTI simulations to illustrate the deficient multi-level secure (MLS) components in HLA and present options for a secure HLA interface built at the network layer. An initial implementation of a proposed solution is presented. We discuss experimental results, limitations of our implementation and future research directions.
