On the battlefield of the future, more and more information will be available for making decisions on a tactical level, provided that this information can be dispersed rapidly and accurately. Sophisticated electronic equipment for communication, information processing and for collection of sensor data are becoming light-weight, small and inexpensive. As a consequence, advanced tactical decision...

For sports assessment to be comprehensive, it must address all variables of sports development, such as psychological, social-emotional, physical and physiological, technical and tactical. Tactical assessment has been a neglected variable until the 1980s or 1990s. In the last two decades (1995-2015), the evolution of tactical assessment has grown considerably, given its importance in game perfo...

We present a way to integrate search and Monte-Carlo methods in the game of Go. Our program uses search to find the status of tactical goals, builds groups, selects interesting goals, and computes statistics on the realization of tactical goals during the random games. The mean score of the random games where a selected tactical goal has been reached and the mean score of the random games where...

This paper discusses the use of eye movement monitoring systems in evaluating visual displays to support tactical decision making. A variety of analytic approaches are considered from a conceptual and practical standpoint and applied to preliminary data collected using the TADMUS DSS display. Eye movement data were collected using a head-mounted eye tracking system worn by command-level decisio...

Nowadays, managing correctly the always changing customer demands is a challenge for companies, especially because of its impact on the Supply Chain (Forrester effect). Tactical planning is very useful in establishing robust plans. This paper proposes an alternative policy to traditional practices (frozen horizon ...), the so-called “reference plan”, to obtain more stable and robust production ...

The Military Analogical Reasoning System (MARS) is a performance support system and decision aid for commanders in Tactical Operations Centers. MARS enhances and supports the innate human ability for using stories to reason about tactical goals, plans, situations, and outcomes. The system operates by comparing many instances of stored tactical stories, determining which have analogous situation...

An integrated equilibrium model for tactical decisions in network design is developed. We consider a decentralized supply chain network operating in markets under uncertain demands when there is a rival decentralized chain. The primary assumption is that two chains provide partial substitutable products to the markets, and markets’ demands are affected by tactical decisions such as price, servi...

Whilst tactical (or strategic) voting is the result of voters responding to the strategic situation they face, rational voter theory may not be a full description of what happens in practice. This paper tests a number of additional hypotheses using survey data on voters in England from 1987 to 1997. Effects of political interest, education, strength of party identification and being against the...

Political developments in Britain since 2001 provide reason to believe that the nature of tactical voting at the 2005 general election may have been different in character from that in other recent elections. This paper examines the changes in party preference structure and finds no sign of greater distance between Labour and the Liberal Democrats. Instead the most notable change is a collapse ...
