| Abstract: | Over the last decade, it has widely been accepted that warfare is a complex adaptive system (CAS). The multi-agent technology is a promising tool to study CASs. The warfare intelligent system for dynamic optimization of missions (WISDOM) is an agent based distillation (ABD) system for warfare. WISDOM-II, the second version of WISDOM is based on a novel network-centric multi-agent architecture (NCMAA). WISDOM-II allows analysts to study the new theory of network centric warfare (NCW) easily and effectively. In this paper, we use multi-objective optimization to evolve capability requirements for the blue (friendly) force. We examine four setups, where either the blue or the red (adversary) force adapts NCW. We show that capability requirements are different when the red force switches from a platform centric warfare (PCW) to a NCW. For a platform-based blue force, an increase in cost is required to meet the same mission when compared to a network-centric blue force. | |
