Advancing the Campaign-level Analysis of Cyberwarfare, Artificial Intelligence and Autonomous Systems, and Battle Command and Control
Abstract
The Military Operations Research Society (MORS) conducted its Advancing Campaign Analytics workshop at the Institute for Defense Analyses, November 1821, 2019. This paper primarily contains results from Working Group 4, Representing New Technologies and Capabilities in Campaign Analysis. Working Group 4 included an assessment of three capability areas of critical importance to future military conflicts: cyberwarfare, artificial intelligence and autonomous systems, and battle command and control. Ultimately, the working group identified three recommendations to improve the analysis of these areas: (1) Improve campaign modeling techniques and, potentially, tools to better represent effects. (2) Improve analyst understanding of these areas through training (in each of the areas) and development of a shared lexicon for cyberwarfare. (3) Expand the system- and mission-level analyst toolkits to better represent these areas, incorporating emerging tools and decision aids from the acquisition, test, and evaluation and the operational planning/execution communities.
