OneSAF Killer/Victim Scoreboard Capability for C2 Experimentation. Track: C2 Experimentation

Abstract

Command and Control (C2) is a commander's guidance of his/her forces (command) to accomplish a goal or mission while monitoring the directed movements (control). The U.S. Army Research Laboratory's (ARL) Battlespace Decision Support Team (BDST) is exploring methods of evaluating the effectiveness of a commander's plan or course of action (COA). Part of our research involves the task of identifying metrics to rate a COA. We have modified the One Semi-Automated Forces (OneSAF) simulation to track direct fire hits and vehicle damage throughout simulated battles. One completed experiment ran a OneSAF scenario over 200 iterations and captured data. BDST will analyze the collected data to determine its utility in measuring COA effectiveness. Future applications of tools and techniques developed through this and other experiments will assist the commander as real-world battles unfold.
