"Big Data" is term heard more and more in industry – but what does it really mean? There is a vagueness to the term reminiscent of that experienced in the early days of cloud computing. This has led to a number of implications for various industries and enterprises. These range from identifying the actual skills needed to recruit talent to articulating the requirements of a "big data" project. Secondary implications include difficulties in finding solutions that are appropriate to the problems at hand – versus solutions looking for problems. This presentation will take a look at Big Data and offer the audience with some considerations they may use immediately to assess the use of analytics in solving their problems. The talk begins with an idea of how big "Big Data" can be. This leads to an appreciation of how important "Management Questions" are to assessing analytic needs. The fields of data and analysis have become extremely important and impact nearly all facets of life and business. During the talk we will look at the two pillars of Big Data – Data Warehousing and Predictive Analytics. Then we will explore the open source tools and datasets available to NATO action officers to work in this domain. Use cases relevant to NATO will be explored with the purpose of show where analytics lies hidden within many of the day-to-day problems of enterprises. The presentation will close with a look at the future. Advances in the area of semantic technologies continue. The much acclaimed consultants at Gartner listed Big Data and Semantic Technologies as the first- and third-ranked top technology trends to modernize information management in the coming decade. They note there is an incredible value "locked inside all this ungoverned and underused information." HQ SACT can leverage this powerful analytic approach to capture requirement trends when establishing acquisition strategies, monitor Priority Shortfall Areas, prepare solicitations, and retrieve meaningful data from archives. ]]>

Massive open online courses (MOOCs) could solve old problems in new ways. More than ever, people need access to knowledge. Since the earliest of days, this has been a never-ending quest. This paper looks at the knowledge process from the domain of education in order to stimulate innovation and advancement in another source of knowledge – modeling and simulation. This paper explores knowledge, starting with the innovations that propelled MOOCs to their current position in the marketplace. It then offers a framework based on current studies and draws parallels to modeling and simulation, probing the questions as to how modeling and simulation can learn from MOOCs so decision makers have greater access to knowledge more directly and easily through modeling and simulation tools as well as the discipline formed by that community. Today's modeling and simulation leaders need awareness of the MOOC business model and the potentially high returns on investment when integrating models and tools to solve new problems.]]>

Nearly ten years ago, the training and modeling and simulations (M&S) communities teamed up to tackle a burgeoning issue – the use of commercial technologies and games in NATO. The challenge came from the cultural change inherent in the domain. Small businesses were the leaders in the game space, yet they were perceived as risks among acquisition authorities. The proponents pushed forward by forming a Modeling and Simulation Group workshop series called “Exploiting Commercial Technologies and Games for Use in NATO” to bridge the cultural gaps. Over ten years, twelve workshops have convened. Successes have been achieved and predictions made five years ago have been attained. This report provides (a) findings such as trends and possible explanations for factors contributing to attainment of workshop predications; (b) trends within technology, industry, and government with respect to commercial technologies and games for education and training; and (c) recommendations for consideration in planning future MSG commercial technology and games workshops.]]>

Computer-based instruction – a proven approach – must adapt to fulfill the growing needs of military and interagency training. This future vision requires innovative toolsets to help bridge the gap between academic, individual instruction and large-scale, mission rehearsals. Given the constrained training budgets of today and tomorrow, one must innovate to enable team training. This paper provides analysis for the existing military training structure and offers insights into how it can be adapted to be lightweight, agile, and more cost efficient at training small teams in preparation for existing large scale exercises. This approach fosters mastery by providing the training audience autonomy of time and team – enabling small team training at a time and place of their choosing. Our innovation’s simplicity has demonstrated the powerful capability of a distributed and immersive application. The paper closes with lessons learned gathered from exercises conducted between 2010 through the present.]]>

Abstract. Current special operations staff training is based on the Joint Event Life Cycle (JELC). It addresses operational level tasks in multi-week, live military exercises which are planned over a 12 to 18 month timeframe. As the military experiences changing global mission sets, shorter training events using distributed technologies will increasingly be needed to augment traditional training. JELC-Lite is a new approach for providing relevant training between large scale exercises. This new streamlined, responsive training model uses distributed and virtualized training technologies to establish simulated scenarios. It keeps proficiency levels closer to optimal levels – thereby reducing the performance degradation inherent in periodic training. It can be delivered to military as well as under-reached interagency groups to facilitate agile, repetitive training events. JELC-Lite is described by four phases paralleling the JELC, differing mostly in scope and scale. It has been successfully used with a Theater Special Operations Command and fits well within the current environment of reduced personnel and financial resources.]]>
