Abstract:
We describe a methodology that uses warfare simulation, data farming and technology forecasting in support of military decision making. Our approach explores the vast space of parameters regarding unknown properties of future weapon systems and other uncertainties that affect the outcome of a battle. Characteristics of successful outcomes are identified, providing insights to such questions as what kind of investments should be made to meet future challenges.
