Towards a Course of Action Probability Ontology for Logistic Supply Destruction Operation
[chapter]
2012
Communications in Computer and Information Science
This paper has proposed the preliminary design of a case of the logistic supply destruction operation (LSDO) for using probabilistic ontology to find effective courses of action. ...
The design of the COA-Ontology strives to support course of action (COA) planning on the upper level of PR-OWL ontology classes. ...
Finally, Section 3 describes a use case of PR-OWL 2 ontology for logistic supply destruction operation (LSDO). ...

We describe integrated algorithms, and a tool capable of translating a high-level concept for a tactical military operation into a fully detailed, actionable plan, producing automatically (or with human ...
Although originally developed for Army large-unit operations, the technology is generic and also applies to a number of other domains, particularly in critical situations requiring detailed planning within ...

Evolution: Complexity, Uncertainty and Innovation
[chapter]
2015
Economic Complexity and Evolution
Input Output representation of behaviours will become large, and our actions erroneous. ...
Complexity science provides a general mathematical basis for evolutionary thinking. It makes us face the inherent, irreducible nature of uncertainty and the limits to knowledge and prediction. ...
Although, a system that is initially not at the peak of probability will more probably move towards the peak, it can perfectly well move the other way; it just happens to be less probable that it will. ...
