23. SEESIM 2012 South Eastern Europe Defence Ministerial Exercise Specification Conference 11-14 October 2011, Sofia NATO ACT Experiment Types Discovery To determine new information and to seek potential solutions; used to introduce novel systems, conceptual organizational structures or technologies to a setting where their use can be observed. (When a concept does not exist, the conceptual rational is used to provide sufficient proof of the value of the experiment) Validation To validate that a proposed solution provides the desired capability; provides final demonstrated evidence through re-creation of a known truth that a prototype capability will improve mission effectiveness or interoperability UNCLASSIFIED Note: Hypothesis Experiment answers the “IF/THEN” question; however need a constant to measure variable as the basis for the experiment

24. SEESIM 2012 South Eastern Europe Defence Ministerial Exercise Specification Conference 11-14 October 2011, Sofia NATO to provide training and expertise in planning and execution, for both experimentation and exercise support as required; areas include: (1) Joint Exercise Management Module (JEMM) (2) NATO Training Federation (NTF) (3) Exercise Scenario Resource Portal (ESRP) NATO to attend SEESIM planning conferences, preparation events and participate in exercise. Areas include: Steering, Operational, Technical Working Groups at ESC, IPC, MPC, FCC and Execution. Networks will be established to support the SEESIM 12 Exercise and experimentation goals. These may be in the form of a single network or separate networks, one of which may be CFBLNet; either of which would be capable of hosting select tools to enable distribution. UNCLASSIFIED
