Introduction
CWIX provides an opportunity for NATO Nations, Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council (EAPC) Countries, Partners across the Globe (PaG) and NATO Commands and Agencies to prove, disprove and improve NATO, National Coalition Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) Interoperability. CWIX is also a forum for interoperability testing of operational systems currently in use in NATO-led operations by commands such as International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) and NATO Response Force (NRF). CWIX is a Military Committee directed, NAC endorsed and C3 Board guided Bi-SC annual programme designed to support the continuous improvement in interoperability for the Alliance. Contributing to the aims of the Connecting Forces Initiative, CWIX related to many operational goals. An important aim of the initiative is to ensure that forces can work together through practice. The interoperability testing of capabilities from various operations coupled with future versions and experimental capabilities is a good gauge of future interoperability. In addition, while CWIX is not a training event, some nations send their systems and network engineers to CWIX to get hands-on experience on a simulated operational network. This is the second year that CWIX used the Joint Force Training Centre, Bydgoszcz, Poland as a primary execution site. There were also multiple distributed sites in France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Greece and the United States. The box below presents the relevant statistics for 2012.
2012 Statistics NATO Member participation: Bulgaria, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, Turkey, United States of America Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council participation: Austria, Finland, Sweden Partners Across the Globe participation: New Zealand. NATO Organisations participation: HQ SACT, SHAPE, JFTC, JWC, JFC HQ Brunssum, NC3B, NC3A, SOF HQ, NCSA HQ, NACMA, C2 COE, JCBRN COE, JALLC Observers: Czech Republic, Lithuania, South Korea Trials: 143 Test Interactions: 7694. Participants/visitors: over 1000
There were 143 capability configurations present during the 10 day testing period. Capabilities were assigned into one of three categories: Fielded are capabilities in their current configuration which are deployed in current operations or in use by their supporting Nations. Developmental are next generation or versions of existing fielded capabilities. Experimental are new technologies that are in the initial phase of development.
75 percent of the capabilities are fielded or developmental and the remaining are experimental capabilities.

test results and feedback will be used to improve the next version of C2 Core to be released in late 2012 and continue toward implementation of the STANAG Transformation Framework (STF). Modeling and Simulation While modelling and simulation were present in previous CWIX, this year the importance of simulation in interoperability testing was significantly emphasized. The Danish Naval Tactical Trainer provided a flexible and scalable simulation solution to generate and execute naval battle space scenarios. The trainer provided different sensor report. These reports were then fused by maritime C2 capabilities to produce tracks that were correlated and filtered similar to real world activities. The simulation injects were also applied to a joint distributed scenarios.
