Preliminary Findings: Design of Experiments University XXI (FY05) Research and Support for the US Army
Abstract
The Design of Experiments project is developing recommendations for a new TOPM for applying DOE Techniques to the US Army's complex operational testing environment. These recommendations are being based upon evaluations of existing event design plans and testing reports. The focus has been primarily upon small- to medium-scale testing scenarios in order to provide recommendations that are easy to understand. The inherent complexity of large-scale testing events also increases the difficulty of making clear recommendations for improvements in testing. It is hoped that through the development of case studies and leveraging AFOTEC's work, we will develop recommendations that tailor DOE techniques and exploit their benefits for use by operation research analysts with USAOTC scenarios. These statistical techniques are expected to afford opportunities for substantial savings in resources for conduct of operational testing as well as accommodate testing of complex large systems.
