DESIGNING A MODERN LABORATORY FOR URBAN COMBAT TRAINING (L4UCT). A PROJECT MANAGEMENT METHODOLOGY BASED APPROACH

Abstract

This paper presents the essential coordinates of the project concerning the achievement of feasible versions in terms of their design and functions) of a laboratory for urban operations for cadets, with high potential for implementation in military higher education institutions. Data to identify the optimal correlation (in terms of technical, system and operational views) between game and simulation, applicable in the military field, based on the use of available airsoft weapons and specialized software existing on the specialized market for military and / or civilian use are envisaged. Our approach for this project maintains the common areas (resources, rules, actors) in the professional civil literature and the types of simulation defined in military documents: real simulation (it implies real people operating real systems), virtual simulation (it implies real people operating simulated systems) and constructive simulation (models and simulations which imply simulated people operating simulated systems, with real people setting the premises but not determining in any way the outcome of the simulation).
