Abstract:

Command and Control C2 is a commanders guidance of hisher forces command to accomplish a goal or mission while monitoring the directed movements control. The U.S. Army Research Laboratorys ARL Battlespace Decision Support Team BDST is exploring methods of evaluating the effectiveness of a commanders plan or course of action COA. Part of our research involves the task of identifying metrics to rate a COA. We have modified the One Semi-Automated Forces OneSAF simulation to track direct fire hits and vehicle damage throughout simulated battles. One completed experiment ran a OneSAF scenario over 200 iterations and captured data. BDST will analyze the collected data to determine its utility in measuring COA effectiveness. Future applications of tools and techniques developed through this and other experiments will assist the commander as real-world battles unfold.
