Background and need for organizational models -- pt. 2. State of the art in organizational modeling -- pt. 3. Addressing unmet modeling needs.Today's military missions have shifted away from fighting nation states using conventional weapons toward combating insurgents and terrorist networks in a battlespace in which the attitudes and behaviors of civilian noncombatants may be the primary effects of military actions. To support these new missions, the military services are increasingly interested in using models of the behavior of humans, as individuals and in groups of various kinds and sizes. Behavioral Modeling and Simulation reviews relevant individual, organizational, and societal (IOS) modeling research programs, evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of the programs and their methodologies, determines which have the greatest potential for military use, and provides guidance for the design of a research program to effectively foster the development of IOS models useful to the military. This book will be of interest to model developers, operational military users of the models and their managers, and government personnel making funding decisions regarding model development.Psychology, MilitarySociology, MilitaryHuman behaviorSimulation methodsOrganizational behaviorSimulation methodsPsychology, Military.Sociology, Military.Human behaviorSimulation methods.Organizational behaviorSimulation methods.355.001/9Zacharias Greg1805469MacMillan Jean1805470Van Hemel Susan B1804560National Research Council (U.S.).Committee on Organizational Modeling: From Individuals to Societies.National Research Council (U.S.).Board on Behavioral, Cognitive, and Sensory Sciences.National Research Council (U.S.).Division of Behavioral and Social Sciences and Education.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910971539403321Behavioral modeling and simulation4354075UNINA
