Abstract

Joint Warfare System (JWARS) is a campaign-level model of military operations. User will include the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), the Joint Staff, the Services, and the US Warfighting Commands. Program requirements documents specify implementation that fosters insight into cause and effect relationships encountered by military forces. JWARS will support multi-billion dollar resource allocation decisions and critical operational planning. As a closed-form analytic simulation, JWARS will provide "balanced" representation of joint (modern) warfare. The simulation is mixed-mode, with models that are stochastic or deterministic. The JWARS program will include explicit representation of effects and perturbations caused by information operations on command and control systems in military operations. Relying on state-of-the-art uncertainty modeling concepts, JWARS engineers and domain experts have developed high-level abstractions of sensor and communications systems, the related information flows, imperfect perception of the battle-space, and command decision making.
