A practical representation of materiel and task-related encumbrance is vital for the realistic modeling and simulation of equipped Ground Soldiers performing combat tasks in various situations. There exists a wide array of literature, studies, reports, and various other sources of knowledge that can be useful for sufficiently modeling the materiel encumbrance and the impact on Ground Soldier (GS) task performance. These sources of encumbrance knowledge, however, are spread over a very broad domain and are generally difficult to map into a unified model of encumbered GS performance. Ontology-driven modeling approaches have many advantages including the (1) establishment of a common vocabulary across the domain, (2) creation of human and machine readable knowledge descriptions that will facilitate automated knowledge acquisition and processing, (3) laying of the foundation for the development of encumbrance knowledge management systems (KMS), and (4) enabling of knowledge elicitation and the creation of new knowledge. This research project investigates advances in ontology driven modeling and simulation for application to materiel and task-related encumbrance modeling and inclusion in a constructive simulation environment.
