Multimedia: the case with the Army's Single Exercise Analysis System prototype

Abstract

This thesis designs and implements a multimedia prototype of the Single Analysis Exercise System (SEAS) for the Army TRADOC Command, Monterey, CA. SEAS is intended to assist an Army analyst in constructing an exercise scenario for a battle simulator, Janus (A). The purpose of the multimedia prototype is to provide the user with an integrated digital platform for battle analysis and scenario generation. The immediate benefits of this study will be a significant reduction in the time required to generate a scenario for Janus (A) and will allow the analyst to complete analysis at one workstation. Also, it is expected that the prototype will enhance the quality of the scenario generation process.
