Abstract
Team 6 continues to participate in an ongoing study to
examine the utility of distillation modeling in the Counter-IED
(Improvised Explosive Devices) fight. Understanding social
networks, their nature in insurgencies and IED networks,
and how to impact them, is important to the Counter-IED
battle. Team 6 is exploring methods of extracting, analyzing,
and visualizing dynamic social networks that are inherent in
agent-based models in order to build tools to examine and
manipulate insurgencies. We are starting with basic clique
creation scenarios as the initial basis of our investigations
and are examining the types of network statistics that can be
used as MOEs and pointers to unique and emergent
behaviors of interest.
