Abstract: A system for tracking objects. Objects such as aircraft, ground vehicles, or vessels may be sensed with various sensors, including an Integrated Broadcast Service (IBS) (220), an Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System (AFATDS) (225), a network (230) of airborne radar sensors, a network (235) of aircraft each reporting its own position, a Blue Force Tracker (BFT) (240), and a network (245) of ground-based mobile radar sensors. Data from each sensor or network of sensors may also be fed, via a display interface layer (250), to a display. A tracker which may be referred to as a coherent aggregator (120) receives input from sensors or other trackers and also from an operator. The operator monitors the display and provides input to the coherent aggregator (120) to assist the coherent aggregator (120) in inferring tracks from measurement reports. Multiple coherent aggregators, in communication with each other and loosely coupled, may be operated simultaneously.

Abstract: In certain embodiments, a system includes one or more memory modules and one or more processing units. The one or more processing units access configuration parameters for configuring models that are operable to simulate operation of a power environment. A first subset of the models models power environment elements of the power environment. A second subset of the models models one or more external information sources, including an environmental source providing environmental data. The one or more processing units initiate configuration of the models according to the configuration parameters, resulting in configured models, and access operating parameters indicating operating conditions for the models to simulate. The one or more processing units initiate execution by the configured models of a simulation of the power environment according to the operating parameters. The configured models interact to execute the simulation.
