IEEE Draft Recommended Practice for Verification, Validation, and Acceptance/Accreditation of a Distributed Simulation–An Overlay to the Distributed Simulation Engineering and Execution Process

IEEE P1730.2 – IEEE Draft Recommended Practice for Verification, Validation, and Acceptance/Accreditation of a Distributed Simulation–An Overlay to the Distributed Simulation Engineering and Execution Process

New IEEE Standard – Active – Draft.The Distributed Simulation Engineering and Execution Process (DSEEP) identifies best practices for the development and execution of distributed simulations and the various technical and managerial issues associated with the implementation of these practices. This recommended practice provides the guidelines and defines the processes and procedures that should be followed for the verification, validation, and acceptance or accreditation (VV&A) of a distributed simulation and provides a more detailed view of the VV&A processes implied by and aligned with the DSEEP. This recommended practice is not intended to replace existing VV&A policies, procedures, and guidance, but rather is intended to focus on the unique aspects of the VV&A of distributed simulations. It provides a higher-level framework into which such practices can be integrated and tailored for specific uses. The VV&A Overlay provides implementation-level guidance to VV&A practitioners; however, it does not describe the individual techniques that might be employed to execute the VV&A processes for distributed simulations. Users, developers, and VV&A personnel working with simulations and simulation compositions not based upon the DSEEP can also benefit from the guidance in this document since the activities that this overlay describes can be tailored to support any type of distributed simulation application. Guidance for specific integrating standards [High-Level Architecture (HLA), Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS), Test and Training Enabling Architecture (TENA), etc.] is provided in the annexes.
