S7 - Module 2 - Simulation & MCIS Interoperability Exam Graded A+

The presentation layer in the OSI Seven-Layer Model transforms data into an acceptable format to be received by the final layer. Which of the following statements is the presentation layer also responsible for? - ANSWER Encrypting and decrypting the syntax layer when necessary Which of the following drawbacks was mentioned in regard to the use of a Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS)? - ANSWER DIS requires a large amount of bandwidth in order to function. SIMNET permitted the transmission of information into a distributed interactive simulation, or DIS, environment to allow the linking of virtual simulators to collaborate on various training exercises. Today, interoperability thrives within the common technical framework of which of the following? - ANSWER High Level Architecture (HLA) You are the operations officer of a military unit that is establishing a training framework under a limited training budget. Your unit also has a limited number of personnel at its disposal. Which type of interoperability would prove most effective in helping you establish a training framework for your unit with limited resources in this situation? - ANSWER MCIS and simulation interoperability You are tasked by your commanding officer to create and send DIS messages, ensuring that communication is being maintained between distributed simulations and simulators. After developing a software interface, you translate all position data to WGS-84. How were you able to translate the position data? - ANSWER All of the above You observe several different types of information and events that are passed from simulation to simulation within high level architecture (HLA). You categorize these different types of information and events into three separate categories. What would you categorize named datums as that reveal different levels of capabilities each time an interaction is sent? - ANSWER Parameters
