چکیده

In order to explore the potential impact of novel command configurations, it is useful to have some means of extrapolating from existing systems and comparing the outcome of change from existing to novel systems. By taking a ‘systems’ view of operations, it is possible to consider the impact of reconfiguration of the performance of the system and on the agents operating within the system. The aim of the WESTT analytical prototyping tool is to support system analysis and to allow the analyst to explore the impact of reconfiguration through the manipulation of models. In this paper we describe the requirements, development and initial prototype of the WESTT system and illustrate the use of the tool through an example drawn from emergency service operations.
