Dynamic and integrative features of the MOVIE environment are optimally
suited for modelling and prototyping various aspects and components of
the new generation of CI systems. The new objectives in this area are
to cope efficiently with potentially smaller but more diversified and less
predictable threats, and to operate in a robust, adaptive fashion in the
dynamic heterogeneous distributed environment. Dynamic topology of the MOVIE
network, supporting adaptive routing schemes to recover from network damages
is useful for such C
I functions as information transmission
and battle management. High-quality dynamic visualization services of
the MOVIE model, evolving towards hypermedia navigation and virtual reality
are suitable for such C
I functions as planning and
evaluation. Finally, the integrative high-level language model of
MovieScript, supporting both the data parallel and irregular
object-oriented computing, is adequate for such C
I functions as
fusion and detection.
MOVIE is planned as one of the candidate software models for the CI
simulation, modelling and prototyping, to be evaluated within the new
cooperative on parallel software engineering industrial CRDA
(Cooperative Research and Development Agreement), starting in summer
1992 and coordinated by Rome Laboratory.
