Modeling and Simulation (M&S) technologies have matured suitably to provide real time tactical utility to warfighting Command and Control (C2) computer system users, but C2 systems adoption of M&S in their native applications has been slow for design, acceptance, computing and procurement reasons. While extensive work has been done with simulation based planning, execution monitoring, logistics...

Low-cost Commercial-Off-the-Shelf (COTS) hardware and software products can be used to build small control, processor and interface devices suitable for current and future tactical radio systems. For example, the input from video cameras, infrared imagers, acoustic transducers, proximity detectors, laser range finders, and other sensor input can be digitized, compressed, processed and transmitt...

In many complex domains full scale detailed solutions to problems -plans and ways to implement them -are not possible or practical. Rather than attempt to produce such detailed solutions, we propose an alternative of using scenarios: a set of 'lsnapshots" of the future that outline possible courses of action, actions of foreign processes, and their consequences. In this paper, we present the sc...

We propose a conceptual framework—with the resourcebased view (RBV) of the firm as its theoretical underpinning—to explain interfirm differences in firms’ profitability in high-technology markets in terms of differences in their functional capabilities. Specifically, we suggest that marketing, R&D, and operations capabilities, along with interactions among these capabilities, are important dete...
