Many military planning problems are difficult to solve using pure mathematical programming
techniques. One such problem is scheduling unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in military …

This work presents a framework and a graphical user interface, Viskit, for the creation and
analysis of component-based discrete event simulation models. Two primary elements of the …

As the discipline of Modeling and Simulation (M&S) becomes more complex, modelers are
faced with mounting challenges to design and analyze simulations that effectively address …

The use of precision-guided artillery rounds has increased in recent years, but analytical
models within simulations that enable effect analysis and tradeoff analysis between …

Standard operating procedures (SOPs) guide emergency responders in a crisis, providing
predetermined steps to manage anticipated events. Modern disasters, however, often …

Spatial partitioning is commonly used for parallel simulation of spatial–temporal systems,
such as simulations of wildfires. Achieving effective spatial partitioning is a challenging task …

The mathematic model for Dynamic Joint Fire Distribution (DJFD) problem is presented,
which considers over cooperation between weapons and sensors while assigning weapons …

The US Navy employs several models of maritime combat to provide analytical rigor to force
structure and weapon system procurement policies. All of the models currently used are high …

Maritime transportation is one of the most significant components of the world's economy
and therefore safer, efficient, and sustainable transportation systems are essential. In the …

When making torpedo loadout decisions, planners must consider the capacities and
capabilities of different anti-submarine warfare (ASW) units, a limited budget, and diverse …
