Download or read book The Mark III Scenario Agent written by and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This note describes the third-generation, or Mark III version of Scenario Agent, the Rand Strategy Assessment Center's (RASC) rule-based computer model of third-country political-military behavior in conflicts involving one or both superpowers. The national actors modeled by Scenario Agent (1) acquire data from the rest of the RSAC system which are used in defining their situation, (2) evaluate the data according to rules defining their assumed national decisionmaking styles, and (3) produce responses which are model's output to the RSAC system. An actor modeled by Scenario Agent integrates this information into a world view with three elements: (1) the extent to which it perceives itself threatened by its political-military environment, (2) how effectively it can cope with the threat, and (3) any superpower requests for the actor's cooperation or involvement. Each actor's behavior is characterized along three dimensions: (1) the extent to which it cooperates with its superpower ally, (2) the extent to which it involves its own armed forces, and (3) the extent to which the actor independently uses its military assets.

Book Synopsis The Mark II Red and Blue Agent Control Systems for the Rand Strategy Assessment Center by : William M. Jones
Download or read book The Mark II Red and Blue Agent Control Systems for the Rand Strategy Assessment Center written by William M. Jones and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Note describes the second-generation 'Mark II' version of the Rand Strategy Assessment Center's Red and Blue Agents. These agents are models representing the behavior of the Soviet Union and the United States in an automated political-military game. The Note documents the technical features of the Mark II Red and Blue Agent models; provides a User's Manual; describes model operations with an example from a typical RSAC war game; and explains the relationships between Mark I, II, and III systems. The Note is predominantly technical, and has more to say about the structure of the models than about their basis in political or military science or about the rationale for the variables used or excluded in Mark II analysis.

This book was released on 1986 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Green Agent, formerly called Scenario Agent, is the Rand Strategy Assessment System's (RSAS's) rule-based computer model of third-country political-military behavior in conflicts involving one or both superpowers. This Note describes the third-generation version, and supersedes all previous Scenario Agent documentation. The Note provides information needed to set up and run the Green Agent in RSAS war games. It should be of interest both to political-military analysts and to modelers.
Book Synopsis Understanding Agent Systems by : Mark d’Inverno
Download or read book Understanding Agent Systems written by Mark d’Inverno and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mark d'Inverno and Michael Luck present a formal approach to dealing with agents and agent systems in this second edition of Understanding Agent Systems. The Z specification language is used to establish an accessible and unified formal account of agent systems and inter-agent relationships. In particular, the framework provides precise and unambiguous meanings for common concepts and terms for agent systems, allows for the description of alternative agent models and architectures, and serves as a foundation for subsequent development of increasingly refined agent concepts. The practicability of this approach is verified by applying the formal framework to three detailed case studies. The book will appeal equally to researchers, students, and professionals in industry.

Book Synopsis Characterizing the Temperaments of Red and Blue Agents--models of Soviet and U.S. Decisionmakers by : James P. Kahan
Download or read book Characterizing the Temperaments of Red and Blue Agents--models of Soviet and U.S. Decisionmakers written by James P. Kahan and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This Note presents a structure for characterizing the temperament of alternative Red and Blue Agents, models representing national command-level decisionmakers in the RAND Strategy Assessment Center's system for automated war gaming. An agent temperament is designed to be a systematized description of the agent's general orientation concerning whether or how to wage war. Agent temperament, in conjunction with the environment in which the agent finds itself and the observed behavior of the opposing agent, guides the rules that dictate agent behaviors. A temperament is thus intended as a plausible characterization of the major dimensions in Soviet or American national command-level thinking that determine the general direction of escalatory policy and the selection of war plans. The authors propose that temperament be expressed within four general themes: strategic orientation, warfighting style, flexibility, and perception. Within each theme, the agent is defined by a number of attributes."--Rand abstracts
Book Synopsis Multimod Mark III by : Mr.Hamid Faruqee
Download or read book Multimod Mark III written by Mr.Hamid Faruqee and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1998-05-21 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study describes the Mark III version of MULTIMOD, the IMF's multi region macroeconomic model. Mark III version of MULTIMOD differs from its predecessor in several important respects. New features include a core steady-state analogue model, a new model of teh inflation-unemployment nexus, and extended non-Ricardian specification of consumption-saving behavior, and improved specifications and estimates of investment behavior and international trade equations. In addition, the introduction of a new solution algorithm has greatly increased the robustness, speed of convergence, and accuracy of the simulations.
Book Synopsis A Life Cycle for Clusters? by : Kerstin Press
Download or read book A Life Cycle for Clusters? written by Kerstin Press and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-09-05 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies the determinants of cluster survival by analyzing their adaptability to change in the economic environment. Linking theoretic knowledge with empirical observations, a simulation model (based in the N/K method) is developed, which explains when and why the cluster's architecture assists or hampers adaptability. It is found that architectures with intermediate degrees of division of labor and more collective governance forms foster adaptability.

Book Synopsis Plan Synchronization in the RSAC Environment by : David A. Shlapak
Download or read book Plan Synchronization in the RSAC Environment written by David A. Shlapak and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This paper addresses some of the issues involved in the synchronization of Analytic War Plans (AWPs) within the RAND Strategy Assessment Center's (RSAC) automated war-gaming system. It discusses issues involved in the planning process and how those issues affect the creation and maintenance of AWPs. It examines the script-like nature of many AWPs and the problems which may arise in coordinating multiple scripts, and discusses the techniques used in addressing these problems within the RSAC system. The authors conclude that they have devised simple and apparently robust mechanisms for controlling multiple scripts in a complex environment, and that their techniques are extensible to other applications requiring multiple scripts in a dynamic simulation."--Rand abstracts.
Book Synopsis Rand's Experience in Applying Artificial Intelligence Techniques to Strategic-level Military-political War Gaming by : Paul K. Davis
Download or read book Rand's Experience in Applying Artificial Intelligence Techniques to Strategic-level Military-political War Gaming written by Paul K. Davis and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper highlights some recent experience in Rand's Strategy Assessment Center (RSAC), a large-scale DoD program to develop new concepts and techniques combining features of war gaming and analytic modeling. The centerpiece of the program is a system for automated war gaming in which some or all political and military national decisions can be made by automatons, and in which both force operations and combat are described by theater and strategic-level models. The RSAC development program is providing a wealth of technical and managerial lessons in adapting and extending such artificial intelligence (AI) techniques as scripts, production rules, English-readable programming languages, goal-directed search, and pattern matching. Most previous AI applications have dealt with smaller and less-complex problems, and have not had to combine AI techniques with those of well-structured system programming and algorithmic combat modeling. Also, the RSAC integration effort has brought together professionals from at least a half-dozen cultures with good ideas but different notions of what constitutes good practice and natural logic. The experience has been illuminating, and the emerging synthesis is unlike previous simulations of which we are aware. (Author).
