Abstract: Although embedded training has become the preferred approach for 
training military forces, it is surrounded by a variety of technical challenges. 
The Inter-Vehicle Embedded Science and Technology (INVEST) Science and 
Technology Objective (STO) program explores technologies required to embed 
simulation in combat vehicles. One of these requirements is to provide a 
simulation environment in which computer generated forces, manned simulators, 
and live vehicles may interact in real-time. Unfortunately, providing this 
geographically distributed and untethered real-time interaction is severely 
limited by the communications requirements imposed by the need to convey large 
amounts of data between the respective players. By extending the concept of 
Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) dead-reckoning, a vehicle movement 
method, to the behavioral level, this limitation may be mitigated. The Vehicle 
Model Generation and Optimization for Embedded Simulation (VMGOES) project at 
the University of Central Florida is focusing on this aspect of the INVEST 
program. This paper presents the specifications and development process of 
VMGOES.
