Robustness and Adaptiveness Analysis of Future Fleets
Slawomir Wesolkowski, Michael Mazurek, James M. Whitacre +2
Making decisions about the structure of a future military fleet is a challenging task. Several issues need to be considered such as the existence of multiple competing objectives a…
Network Topology and Time Criticality Effects in the Modularised Fleet Mix Problem
James M. Whitacre, Axel Bender, Stephen Baker +3
In this paper, we explore the interplay between network topology and time criticality in a military logistics system. A general goal of this work (and previous work) is to evaluate…
Computational Scenario-based Capability Planning
Hussein Abbass, Axel Bender, Helen Dam +3
Scenarios are pen-pictures of plausible futures, used for strategic planning. The aim of this investigation is to expand the horizon of scenario-based planning through computationa…
Strategic Positioning in Tactical Scenario Planning
James M. Whitacre, Hussein A. Abbass, Ruhul Sarker +2
Capability planning problems are pervasive throughout many areas of human interest with prominent examples found in defense and security. Planning provides a unique context for opt…
Degenerate neutrality creates evolvable fitness landscapes
James M Whitacre, Axel Bender
Understanding how systems can be designed to be evolvable is fundamental to research in optimization, evolution, and complex systems science. Many researchers have thus recognized…
