Deep Green

Abstract

Deep Green is a next-generation, battle command and decision support technology that combines anticipatory planning with adaptive execution to help the commander think ahead, identify when a plan is going awry, and prepare options before they are needed. Deep Green will radically reduce the time needed to plan and execute military operations and will reduce the number of staff officers needed in an operations center. Through rapid mission planning and execution and reduced staff overhead, Deep Green's goal is to save lives and reduce costs. Deep Green will automatically infer the commander's intent and output a plan from the commander's hand-drawn sketches to facilitate rapid option creation. Deep Green generates a broad set of possible futures from those options for all sides in an operation and predicts the likelihood of each future. It supports anticipatory planning by using information about the ongoing operation to nominate future states that are no longer feasible and probable future states upon which the commander should focus additional planning efforts. By anticipating decision points early and allowing the commander to explore the future option space, Deep Green supports commander's visualization and adaptive execution, enabling correct, timely decisions by the commander. Deep Green technology will transition to the U.S. Army.
