This thesis addresses the problem of modeling the
decision processes in the Airland Research Model. The
Generalized Value System (GVS) is presented as a tool for
evaluating the power and value of entities throughout the
battlefield at present and future times. Precise definitions
and procedures for determining various aspects of
power and value are presented. The GVS provides the basis
for an approach called future state decision making. An
example is given which shows how the approach is used to
make decisions at the present time based on what the situation
is expected to be in the future.
