There will be briefs from MOVES faculty and students, other NPS personnel, as well as many others involved in modeling and simulation. For more information, see the agenda.

The highlight is demo night, which is being held Wednesday, May 24, in Watkins Hall rooms 275/285. Come and have a sandwich on us while and trying out our faculty and students' work in virtual and augmented reality, AI, human factors, and other areas. Additionally, our industry partners will be demonstrating their own products on Thursday, May 25 from 1400–1600 in Watkins 275/285.

This is always a great time to find out what's new in modeling and simulation, as well as catching up research efforts on campus.

Memorial Day is observed on the last Monday of May, remembering the men and women who died while serving in the U.S. military.

With the overarching design challenge “How might we identify and prioritize intelligent autonomous systems (IAS) research and development opportunities of the most interest to Naval leadership and align work with affiliated warfare center projects and industry partners?” Small teams of junior officers, academic subject matter experts, and engineers from warfare centers will explore this future problem space, and with tools of warfighter-centered design will generate prioritized lists of opportunities for mutually beneficial projects. The four focus areas include: 1) Role of IAS in Contested Logistics, 2) Best Practices in IAS Research and Acquisition, 3) Strategic Integration of IAS in Mission Sets, and 4) IAS NEXT Technology & Workforce. Please note that this opportunity is only available to NPS students, faculty, DoD personnel and contractors.
