Abstract

A three-phase fundamental research project is underway to determine the value of providing context-sensitive policy management technology, which is informed by algorithms based on cultural models and collaborative decision making, to partners in collaborative mission planning and execution. Three research teams are collaborating and leveraging their research frameworks and current results in policy lifecycle management, cultural analysis, and decision support in this effort. This paper describes the three technical areas, the potential value of their integration in a new perspective, a set of research questions, and the three-phase research approach of theoretical work, field interview research, and development of the system.
