VMASC Lands Contract ODU’s Virginia Modeling, Analysis and Simulation Center (VMASC) was recently awarded a contract to support various U.S. Joint Forces Command’s command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance programs. The base period of the contract is valued at $4.1 million and the total estimated value, if all options are exercised, is estimated to be more than $22 million over a five-year period. Gov. Mark Warner joined President Roseann Runte May 6 for a ribbon-cutting ceremony at VMASC’s Battle Lab. An innovative computer simulation laboratory, it is designed to provide the advanced modeling and simulation infrastructure to support research in the areas of collaboration, composability, distributed simulation, human-computer interfaces, human factors, simulation methodologies, systems integration, virtual environments and visualization.
