Research abstract
IT IS PROPOSED TO DEVELOP A MANAGEMENT METHODOLOGY FOR PERFORMING TRADEOFF STUDIES OF NUCLEAR SURVIVABILITY OPTIONS FOR BATTLEFIELD SYSTEMS. THE PURPOSE FOR THE METHODOLOGY IS TO PROVIDE SYSTEMS MANAGERS (AND THEIR ADVISERS) A METHOD FOR ENSURING THE COST-EFFECTIVE SURVIVABILITY TECHNIQUES ARE INCLUDED IN THE SYSTEMS PLANNING IN EARLY STAGES. THE INTENT OF THE PROPOSAL IS TO SUPPORT IMPLEMENTATION OF DOD I 4245.4 IN A COST-EFFECTIVE MANNER. THE SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY ARE TO DEVELOP: (1) A COMPENDIUM OF GENERAL MANAGEMENT PROCEDURES FOR IMPLEMENTING SURVIVABILITY TRADE STUDIES; (2) A CANDIDATE LIST OF NUCLEAR SURVIVABILITY ENHANCEMENT OPTIONS AND A SET OF PROCEDURES FOR QUANTIFYING SPECIFIC OPTION FEATURES; AND (3) A WELL-DEFINED GENERAL MATHEMATICAL PROCEDURE FOR PERFORMING THE TRADE STUDIES.
