This paper presents a new application for auditory display, the use of sound to assist the analysis of tactics and tactical training in sports games. For a pilot study we have set up a system for the video recording and processing (i.e. tracking of the players and the ball) of tactical training cycles in handball. An auditory display was designed to meet the requirements for supporting and exte...

This paper addresses the problem of developing an expert system to aid the G2 intelligence analyst in performing the tactical indications of warning task. These include assimilating numerous reports based on sensor and intelligence data (in signal and symbol form); combining such knowledge with information pertaining to terrain, weather patterns, enemy organization, equipment and general cababi...

The impact of tactical knowledge on negotiator behaviors and joint outcomes was examined. It was hypothesized that the availability of written descriptions of negotiation tactics would provide negotiators with the knowledge necessary to apply in a mixed-motive negotiation and that, as a result, these negotiators would engage in different behaviors leading to higher joint outcomes than would neg...

This paper investigates a novel approach to integrating tactical and strategical decision making and applies it to scheduling the operation of autonomous robot office couriers. In this approach the robot makes strategical (farsighted) decisions while it executes a plan using tactical (immediate) decisions and overwrites tactical decisions after strategical decisions have been reached (if necess...

An integrated equilibrium model for tactical decisions in network design is developed. We consider a decentralized supply chain network operating in markets under uncertain demands when there is a rival decentralized chain. The primary assumption is that two chains provide partial substitutable products to the markets, and markets’ demands are affected by tactical decisions such as price, servi...

Admission policies for elective inpatient services mainly result in the management of a single resource: the operating theatre as it is commonly considered as the most critical and expensive resource in a hospital. However, other bottleneck resources may lead to surgery cancellations, such as bed capacity and nursing staff in Intensive Care (IC) units and bed occupancy in wards or medium care (...

On the evening of 13 November 2015, three terrorists equipped with military-grade firearms and explosive jackets penetrated Bataclan, a Paris music hall containing 1500 people [1]. The terrorists started a massive execution of the people located in the orchestra pit. Terrorists then moved to the upper circle to take 400 people hostage. Immediately, RAID (Research, Assistance, Intervention, Dete...

In this paper, the problem of qualitative description and quantitative optimization for tactical reconnaissance agents system organization is considered with objective of higher teamwork efficiency and more reasonable task balancing strategies. By analyzing tactical reconnaissance system and its environment, task-(role)-entity agent mapping mechanism and agents in system organization, the syste...

During recent years, IT alignment research has gained considerable attention in both academia and practice. However, so far most studies focus on the strategic-to-strategic IT alignment dimension, thus omitting an integration of the strategic-to-tactical IT alignment dimension. By drawing upon assimilation and institutional theory, our research model depicts a perspective on IT project alignmen...

This paper shows a distributed simulation framework for tactical training in networked virtual environment. The existing military training simulation systems are mostly full simulated systems operating on single platform. They are to train individual’s operation skill, but don’t support team level tactical training. In order to train team level combat and command skill in dynamic battlefield, t...
