Manned simulation research in complex control systems

Posted

Two purposes guide the studies currently in progress in the RAND Logistics Systems Laboratory: one is to aid the Air Force in a substantive management or control problem, such as operations-support control of the ICBM force, or control and allocation of resources to perform the short-term job of procuring, repairing and distributing the Air Force's supply assets; and the second is to improve the RAND use of abstract (primarily, manned computer-assisted) simulations in designing and evaluating alternative, complex control systems.

Shape the Future of Computing

ACM encourages its members to take a direct hand in shaping the future of the association. There are more ways than ever to get involved.

Get Involved

Communications of the ACM (CACM) is now a fully Open Access publication.

By opening CACM to the world, we hope to increase engagement among the broader computer science community and encourage non-members to discover the rich resources ACM has to offer.
