TRAINING TO IMPROVE DECISION MAKING – System dynamics applied to higher-level military operations

This paper is concerned with how to improve the training of higher-level military officers, given that the conditions for learning in “conventional” exercises (with a high degree of realism and complexity) are suboptimal. From other applications (e.g., business and public management) we know that a key feature of effective decision training is high exercise frequency. Another requirement is for...

Evaluating Simulated Military Training Exercises

The Joint Kill Chain Event (JKCE), designed by the Air Force’s Distributed Mission Operations Center (DMOC), provides an interesting case study for evaluation of simulated military training. JKCE places Army Air Defense Artillery Fire Control Officers (ADAFCOs) into an Air Force Control and Reporting Center (CRC) simulator. From the CRC, the ADAFCO leads an air missile defense scenario, protect...
