The Military Roundtable is the arena for sharing ideas and experiences
on the application of System Dynamics to military problems. The list of
topics includes, for example: strategy development; force-on-force
analysis; war-gaming; military decision making; training of military
decision makers; including command-post exercises; preparedness studies;
human resource management; development and management of military
capability; management of materiel acquisition; military logistics
modelling; in-service management. We suggest the following main topic
for this year's meeting: "SDM as a tool to support training and
exercise". Opportunities exist for participants to provide update on
recent research and consulting activities, to discuss opportunities for
the future and challenges that confront those working in or having an
interest in system dynamics modelling (SDM) in military context. We will
continue the work on assembling a compendium of models and readings on
SDM in defence.
