Reasoning, Planning, and Goal Seeking for Small Combat Unit Modeling and Simulation

The current state of Modeling and Simulation (MS considering multiple courses of action; coordinating with friendly forces; following chain of command; and using Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) to guide operations. Intelligent agents guided by RPGS methodologies and algorithms will be able to execute complex tasks given mission goals, initial/boundary conditions, constraints, and access to a battlespace knowledge base. TSE is creating a formal model of the Soldier and SU battlespace on which reasoning can be conducted. TSE will integrate two technical standards into the battlespace knowledge model; the Joint Consultation, Command, and Control Information Exchange Data Model (JC3IEDM) and the Coalition Battle Management Language (C-BML). This paper discusses the application of these standards and the design and development of a battlespace knowledge base and new RPGStechnologies.
