Software Tool for Naval Surface Warfare

Determining optimal operations involves performing complex tasks by navy commanders. In this paper we present a software tool with four main functions that facilitate commanders’ tasks in naval surface warfare. First, a human-computer interaction function presents battlefield information using information-rich graphical symbols. Second, a command and control function allows commanders to achiev...

Some anatomical problems in naval warfare.

In general, our problems have been concerned with the determination of conditions of work which allow personnel to perform certain routine operations (such as the loading of a heavy gun) precisely, rapidly, and with the minimum of fatigue and discomfort. Having established these conditions by experiment, the results are then applied to the design ofmachines or weapons as far as mechanical requi...

A Tabu Search Heuristic for Resource Management in Naval Warfare

Effective utilization of scarce resources, in particular weapon resources, is a prominent issue in naval anti-air warfare. In this paper, defence plans are constructed to guide the allocation and scheduling of different types of defence weapons against anti-ship missiles, subject to various physical and operational constraints. To reduce the frequency of replanning, decision trees are considere...
