CACDA JIFFY III War Game. Volume I. Executive Summary

Abstract

This report is one of a set of five volumes produced to document the combat assessment methodologies and automated features of the Combined Arms Combat Developments Activity (CACDA) Jiffy III war gaming process. The Jiffy process was originally developed to support the TRADOC Scenario Oriented Recurring Evaluation System (SCORES) scenario development and force evaluation efforts. In 1978, the 1977 version of the Jiffy was extensively modified and improved to support Europe III scenario gaming through March 1980. This report documents the Jiffy model used for that gaming. Volume II of this report contains the methodologies used in the automated routines of the Jiffy III Game. An unclassified data base, which was developed for test and demonstration purposes, is presented in Volume II. The classified data used in the Jiffy III Game during secure production runs, and their sources, are published separately as Volume III to keep the methodology volume unclassified. The other three volumes in the set are the Executive Summary (Volume I), the Users Manual (Volume IV), and the Programmers Manual (Volume V). (Author)
