本推荐规程定义了为使用分布式仿真工程和执行过程（DSEEP）开发的联邦实施验证、确认和认可（VV&A）所应遵循的流程和程序。本推荐做法并非旨在取代现有的VV&A政策、程序和指南，而是旨在关注联合会VV&A的独特方面。它提供了一个更高层次的框架，可以将这些实践集成到其中，并根据具体用途进行定制。 VV&A覆盖为VV&A从业者提供实施级指导；然而，它没有描述可能用于执行联邦的VV&A过程的单个技术。

This recommended practice defines the processes and procedures that should be followed to implement Verification, Validation, and Acceptance/Accreditation (VV&A) for distributed simulations being developed using the Distributed Simulation Engineering and Execution Process (DSEEP). This recommended practice is not intended to replace existing VV&A policies, procedures, and guidance, but rather is intended to focus on the unique aspects of the VV&A of distributed simulations. It provides a higher-level framework into which such practices can be integrated and tailored for specific uses. The VV&A overlay provides implementation-level guidance to VV&A practitioners; however, it does not describe the individual techniques that might be employed to execute the VV&A processes for distributed simulations. Users, developers, and VV&A personnel working with simulations and simulation compositions not based upon the DSEEP can also benefit from the guidance in this document since the activities that this overlay describes can be tailored to support any type of distributed simulation application. Guidance for specific integrating standards [High-Level Architecture (HLA), Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS), Test and Training Enabling Architecture (TENA), etc.] is provided in the annexes.
