• Common Operational Modeling, Planning and Common Operational Modeling, Planning and Simulation Strategy: non-intrusive, middleware Simulation Strategy: non-intrusive, middleware set of interface standards. set of interface standards.

• Enables real-time Distributed Collaborative Planning and execution coordination between disparate existing or developing C4I or mission planning systems.

• Provides an interface to distribute M&S products to the warfighter for enhanced collaborative plan building insight and decision support.

• DMSO - original sponsor for R&D phase under C4I to Simulation Initiative Project (until Dec 97)

• Operational fielding Jan / Feb 99 in GCCS under JCS, DISA and DD JPO sponsorship (since Jan 98)
