Army Sustainability Modelling Analysis and Reporting Tool (A-SMART) Prototype: Model Description and Algorithms

Abstract

The Army Sustainability Modelling Analysis and Reporting Tool (A-SMART) is a prototype software application that has been developed as a platform to assist Army to better understand its requirements for a comprehensive decision-support environment for Army modernisation and as an interim analysis capability; especially to support force structure design, development, analysis and refinement. Here we describe the modelling approach, the software architecture, data design and the algorithms employed in the model code for the prototype; it is hoped that the approach and methodology outlined here for the prototype will assist, but not constrain, the development of detailed specifications for a fully operational, comprehensive system.
