Abstract

The Modeling Architecture for Technology, Research, and eXperimentation (MATREX) program is the foremost distributed modeling and simulation environment in the US Army, providing a unifying M&S architecture, supporting tools, and infrastructure to ease the integration and use of multi-resolution live, virtual, and constructive (LVC) applications. We present the MATREX program overview and objectives, describe the current state of the architecture, tools, and services, and discuss near-term developmental efforts. We then briefly address two applications of the MATREX environment, namely the application in the Future Combat System Lead Systems Integrator System of System Integration Laboratory, and the Cross Command Collaboration Effort. Finally, we describe the lessons learned in the process, describing the obstacles encountered and the mitigation techniques employed, as well as the program successes.
