Automated, embedded data collection, assessment, and integration capabilities are key requirements of an instructional framework to support performance evaluation and debrief of multiple teams participating in distributed simulation-based exercises. This paper discusses recent progress in the application of automated performance data collection and assessment capabilities as part of a prototype Debriefing Distributed Simulation-Based Exercises (DDSBE) system. The automated data collection process obtains data from local and distributed simulation systems and operator consoles to assess individual, team, and multi-team performance on training objectives during critical and key events. Performance is assessed at the multi-team, team, and individual levels as appropriate. Automated and observer-based semi-automated assessments are integrated into data products suitable for debrief development. Methods, products, and results from the research and development effort to date are discussed.

This paper discusses human factors issues in designing methods to develop and deliver After Action Reviews (AARs) in the Navy-sponsored Debriefing Distributed Simulation-Based Exercises (DDSBE) research program. DDSBE is intended to develop and test methods for collecting, analyzing, presenting, and distributing performance data in the emerging Navy distributed simulation training environment. In addition to research-driven AAR design, the program includes considerable software development: building a simulation testbed, developing and integrating automated and semi-automated data collection tools, and designing and implementing automated analysis methods. Considerable data will be collected automatically. Consequently, trainers will not be required to observe an aspect of performance to include it in an AAR. Although AARs are used after actual military actions and after live training, we confine our discussion to distributed simulation-based training, the focus of DDSBE.

Considering the complexity and decentralization of data acquisition and power supply for cockpit devices of flight simulator, this paper designs and realizes a distributed simulation system for aircraft cockpit based on embedded Ethernet and Power over Ethernet technology. A simulation scheme with many nodes of data acquisition and instrument control is adopted. Based on PoE technology, the power subsystem can supply DC power on the same cable that carries data. As a result, this greatly simplifies power wiring installation in the narrow cockpit while improving reliability. The design of aircraft cockpit simulation has been successfully used in certain type flight simulator. Through the actual system testing, the design has excellences of higher stability, expansibility and security.
