ABSTRACT
The goal of this effort is to use multi-scale modeling to understand the effect of operator environment
interaction and the global environment on Air and Space Operations Center
(AOC) processes. Models were developed at 3 scales, including: 1) Operator interaction
with computer interface (Agent-Based model); 2) Processing of Time Sensitive Targets
(TST, Petri net model); and 3) Mission-scale objectives, strategy, and processes,
including adversary response and global and US public perception (System Dynamics
model). An existing Petri net model of the operational architecture of the AOC was
updated for this study; all models were developed with subject matter experts.
