A Methodology for Simulating Net-Centric Technologies: An Operations Research Approach

Abstract

Captured enemy documents, also known as `CED', are vitally important to today's Army. With the capability to fill vital intelligence requirements, CED help Army units accomplish their missions and corroborate enemy prisoner of war interrogations. The language instant screening tool "LIST" technology being produced at the United States Military Academy provides a net-centric solution to expedite Army doctrine as outlined in FM 34-52. When modeling CED reporting procedures from FM 34-52, this study finds that LIST technologies could facilitate a net-centric enabled intelligence and information structure that is able to reduce dissemination times to a level that were previously unobtainable. The intent of this paper is to provide a methodology whereby further operations research may be conducted to support a net-centric tool suite that will ultimately benefit today's Army.
