A comprehensive guide to computer assisted exercises Readers can turn to this indispensable reference guide forcomprehensive and lucid coverage of the operational, technical, andorganizational knowledge needed to harness successful andconstructive computer assisted exercises (CAX) and war games. It isgeared also toward large civilian organizations that are looking toteach and test their strategies and procedures without the addedcost of manpower. Divided into two clear parts, the bookcovers:Fundamentals and Theory—conflict and warfare; probabilityand statistics; simulation; distributed simulation; andexperimentation and analysisCombat Modeling, Computer Assisted Exercises, andPractice—CAX architectures; CAX process; combat modeling; CAXsupport tools; communications/information system issues, technicalrisks, and risk miti-gation; and exercise centers andfacilitiesComputer Assisted Exercises and Training: A Reference Guide isindispensable reading for research engineers, computer scientists,software engineers working with modeling and simulation, homelandsecurity specialists, staff in simulation training centers,military strategists and commanders, and many others. It alsoserves as a valuable textbook for modeling and simulation coursesat the upper-undergraduate and graduate levels.
