OVERVIEW ON THE DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING OF THE TEST AND TRAINING ENABLING ARCHITECTURE (TENA)

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 20-23, 2003 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / Sponsored by the Central Test and Evaluation Investment Program (CTEIP) under the Director of
Test and Evaluation (DOT&E), the Foundation Initiative 2010 (FI 2010) project is chartered to enable
interoperability among ranges, facilities, and simulations in a timely and cost-efficient manner
and to foster reuse of range assets and future software systems. To achieve this vision, FI 2010 has
developed and is validating a common architecture called the Test and Training Enabling Architecture
(TENA), which provides for real-time software system interoperability using the TENA Middleware,
as well as interfaces to existing range assets, C4ISR systems, and simulations. The TENA
middleware is being developed using an iterative development process, with functionality being released
in four “spirals.” The current software version, Release 3.0, was built upon previous releases
and provides some key functionality enhancements to include multicast transport, vector data types
and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) multicast communication support. This paper will provide detailed
information on the current status of the FI 2010 project, the TENA Middleware Release 3.0,
and how the TENA software has been utilized to support test and training events (e.g., Millennium
Challenge 02).
