Track description

Social networks, crowd sourcing, powerful mobile devices and the latest M&S technologies associated with Virtual Worlds and Augmented Reality are key areas of innovation in designing a next generation of Simulation and Command and Control framework for the military M&S Domains. This framework can support Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Operations providing mobile services, tools and applications to support planning and execution activities at tactical and operational level in a Command and Control Network Centric Value Chain paradigms

Topics of interest include:

· C4ISR M&S Emerging Technology for training, analysis and operational support

· Augmenter Reality in military applications

· Command & Control and Social networks, Crowdsourcing applications to support desion making process.

· Interoperable C2-SIM Languages (C-BML and MSDL)

· LVC-IA (Live, Virtual, Constructive) - Integrating Architecture (FEDEP - JMTEC)

· Virtual and Real Worlds interaction

· C4ISR systems stimulation using LVC simulators and Augmented reality techniques
