Multi-Scale Modeling of the Air Operations Center

Abstract

The goal of this effort is to use multi-scale modeling to understand the effect of operator environment interaction and the global environment on Air and Space Operations Center (AOC) processes. Models were developed at 3 scales, including: 1) Operator interaction with computer interface (Agent-Based model); 2) Processing of Time Sensitive Targets (TST, Petri net model); and 3) Mission-scale objectives, strategy, and processes, including adversary response and global and US public perception (System Dynamics model). An existing Petri net model of the operational architecture of the AOC was updated for this study; all models were developed with subject matter experts.
