SIMTAX - A Taxonomy for Warfare Simulation (Workshop Report)

Abstract

The Department of Defense needs a wargaming and warfare simulation descriptive framework to guide the development, acquisition and use of models of warfare. The essential first step in producing such a descriptive framework is developing a wargaming and warfare simulation taxonomy or classification system. This proceedings of a three session workshop reports taxonomy for the classification of combat models and simulations. Keywords: Operations research; Computer models; Combat simulations.
