This proposal presents a six-month program for development and Testing of a testbed system, called intelligent scenario assistance And analysis console (isaac). Isaac will allow non-subject matter Experts to use an intelligent user interface to build and verify a Battle force tactical training scenario. The user will have the Ability to select and verify various doctrinal and tactical setups, The platforms and formations, the force posture, and the weapons Systems used by the forces portrayed. Amphibious warfare has been Selected as a demonstration vehicle for this proposal; however, the Intent will be to develop a general capability to develop scenarios. The development of isaac will be directed toward the achievement of Three general objectives:(1) to develop scenarios quickly and Accurately with reduced labor and workload requirements,(2) maximize Achievement of training objectives through scenario control,(3) Minimize military subject-matter expert (sme) involvement and enhance Use of civilian scientists and engineers.Six tasks are proposed:(1) perform front-end analyses,(2) develop system specifications,(3) develop a testbed system,(4) conduct system walk-throughs with Smes,(5) develop a phase ii plan, and(6) prepare a final report.
