Abstract

In this paper, we discuss the design and use of a proto-type object-oriented framework for simulating automatic data collection systems within their operational contexts. We motivate the purpose of the framework and how the framework can be used through the use of a simple scenario on an airbase. In addition, we overview the design by examining the major conceptual artifacts within the object-oriented model. The framework is built on a Java Simulation Library (JSL) and permits easy modeling and execution of simulation models. The results and discussion indicate the flexibility and power of modeling with the framework. Finally, we summarize our future research efforts to model more complicated automatic collection systems which include health monitoring systems within the Air Force's new sense and respond logistics paradigm.
