Real Time Strategy (RTS) games present a wide range of AI challenges at the tactical and strategic level. Unfortunately, the lack of flexible “mod” interfaces to these games has made it difficult for AI researchers to explore these challenges in the context of RTS games. We are addressing this by building two AI interfaces into Full Spectrum Command, a real time strategy training aid built for ...

This paper shows a distributed simulation framework for tactical training in Networked Virtual Environment (NVE). These days the NVE technology for an operational tactical training system plays a significant role in military training courses. The existing military training simulation systems are mostly full simulated systems operating on single platform. They are to train individual’s operation...

Herd management is essentially decision making under uncertainty. The manager makes decisions without speciic knowledge of the future (and present) state of the system. Decisions made on the tactical level are generally more uncertain than the ones on the operational level. However, a tactical decision will have an innuence on the decisions made on the operational level through the timehorizon ...

The rapidly developing, worldwide marketplace is leading to the geographical dispersion of production, assembly and distribution operations. This paper deals with three aspects of international logistics networks: strategic, tactical and operational. The strategic level designs the logistics network, including prescribing facility locations, production technologies and plant capacities. The tac...

This paper addresses two practical problems from a liner shipping company, i.e., the container flow management problem and the ship deployment problem at the tactical planning level. The joint optimization model, as well as, a sequential model, is formulated to solve the problems. Our results show the company should implement the joint optimization model at the tactical planning level to improv...

In herd management, we face a hierarchy of decisions made at different levels with different time horizon, and the decisions made at different levels are mutually dependent. Furthermore, decisions have to be made without certainty about the future state of the system. If, for instance, a decision has to be made at the tactical level, it is necessary to assume some policy to be followed concerni...

in this study, a cross-docking system is designed at strategic and tactical levels. for making the strategic decisions, a multi-objective nonlinear location allocation model for cross-docks is presented based on a distri-bution location allocation model by andreas klose and andreas drexl. the model is further developed to in-clude the whole supply chain members and the objective functions are w...

Measuring and evaluating tactical behavior is one of the main goals in performance analysis in professional soccer. A specific tactical approach may present the difference between winning and losing, especially in the highest level of competition. So fare tactical behavior is mostly determined by using one or two variables, like ball possession or number of passes. Within this study, we introdu...

Project management decisions are made at the strategic, the tactical and the operational level. These decision levels are unarguably interrelated. Uncertainty in project management is primarily dealt with at an operational level by detecting operational risks and deciding on how to respond to them such that the tactical objectives can be met. We stress some major issues regarding the topics of ...
