Summary	Better data integration is needed for communications and information interchange among diverse stove-piped Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) tactical systems, not just with each other and but also with complementary modeling and simulation (M&S) systems. NPS will provide technical support for the Maritime Surveillance System (MSS) Lean Six Sigma effort to determine better options for message reporting and data transfer. This work complements extensive efforts by the ASW Community of Interest (COI) program and ASW data-modeling efforts to establish coherent messaging and battlespace visualization capabilities for network-centric undersea warfare. The primary focus of development efforts is being performed by the ASW COI Data Model Working Group (DMWG) Working Group. This effort is part of a larger collaboration among partnered participants from government, industry and academia.
