Abstract

Weapon systems effectiveness simulation (WESS) is a special kind of complex system simulation. There are not only much potential for composable modeling, but also urgent demands for composable simulation in WESS domain. Current approaches toward simulation composability e.g. unified simulation protocols, unified modeling methodologies, unified model specifications and so on, are mostly put forward from a technological perspective with lots of application domain specific knowledge left alone. Consequently, the true composability aim is far from fulfilled. In this research, the pivot of composability is put on the model architecture of a simulation application. By ways of pre-implementing the domain invariable knowledge (DIK) as a composable domain specific modeling framework, simulation application development is simplified as representing application variable knowledge (AVK) via customizing or extending the domain specific modeling framework. Along this approach, a composable modeling framework (CMF) for WESS domain is developed. The successful applications of CMF show its effectiveness on improving simulation development efficiency and model composability.
