Simulation – Simulation Interoperability with the Microsaint Simulation Software and COM Services
•COM services developed as a new feature for Microsaint
•COM services allow communication between Microsaint and other software applications
•Examples of COM Services application
•Course of Action Training Tool (CATT)
•Combat Automation Requirements Testbed (CART)

Communication is key to successful operations of business, military and health care systems. In general, two types of communications are sought: dynamic data exchange during simulation runs directly between simulations and sharing data between simulation runs through a central repository.
COM Services was developed using the Component Object Model.

CATT – a technical approach for providing mission training for helicopter pilots on the dynamic conditions and alternative courses of action. The user would be able to access a GUI component that would communicate through COM Services with the Micro Saint simulations.

CART – developed under the Air Force Research Laboratory. The addition of an adaptive simulation interoperability environment allowed CART models to communicate with other simulations.
