Review of Research and Methodologies Relevant to Army Command and Control Performance Measurement

摘要

This report reviews research that has been conducted on division-, brigade-, and battalion-level command and control processes. Battalion-level research, which forms the largest part of the literature, is shown to have been motivated primarily by the need to evaluate battalion Army Training and Evaluation Programs (ARTEPs) and factors related to battalion battle simulation development. The literature on research and methodology development is also shown to address certain basic issues such as what constitutes command post effectiveness and how battle outcome measures relate to command group performance. Some attention is also given to problems associated with the conduct of research in this arena and the development of research, or applied, measurement processes. Keywords: HEAT (Headquarters Effectiveness Assessment Tool). (KR)
