Computer Aided Evaluation of Trainee Skills on a Simulator Network

The aim of the PPTS project (Pedagogical Platoon Training System) is to design and implement an evaluation environment for strategic and tactical skills, coupled to a network of full-scale simulators of the LECLERC tank. The three-level architecture adopted here is modelled on the levels of expertise, technical, tactic and strategic. The technical level is carried out by reactive agents, the monitors. They point out the important events of the exercise. The evaluation of tactical skills is carried out by cognitive agents, the analysts, which use the facts generated by the monitors to evaluate the tactical skills. The software architecture at analyst level provides a flexible solution to the problem of time in the evaluation of the exercise, whether the transitions between phases are sudden or gradual, whether the exercise is slow or rapid. We will complete this study with the strategic level.
