Past event: Modeling & Simulation Summit

Increasing Immersion and Realism to Meet Tomorrow’s Training Needs!


IDGA’s 2nd Annual Modeling & Simulation Summit will provide the most up-to-date news on the latest advancements in technologies and the lessons learned from recent efforts. This event will take a closer look at military strategies for M&S including Irregular Warfare and Counter IED training. Due to increasing challenges, acquisition decisions are currently being made, as well as new requirements for industry.


This summit will provide unique insight into the following areas:

  • The virtual battlefield of the future
  • Technological developments and needs for simulation
  • Cognitive science involvement with simulation of the future
  • Simulated future conflicts and training
  • Recruitment using simulators

 

We must ensure our Warfighters maintain their prominence as the strongest force in the world by equipping them with unsurpassed modeling, simulation, testing and training devices.
