CADET addresses the central issues of Course of Action (COA) development and wargaming. CADET takes a sketch and statement as an input, and produces detailed schedules of 100’s of tasks, usage of resources, risks and losses, actions of the enemy, and routing. CADET performs detailed logistical analysis including projected ordnance and POL consumption and CSS planning at several echelons. CADET considers details of logistics such as the number and type of vehicles, type and amount of ordnance, and gallons and type of fuel carried by each unit. CADET estimates personnel and weapon systems attrition mimicking the evaluations performed by Army’s experts. Practical Planning and Scheduling of COA CADET Course of Action Display and Evaluation Tool (CADET) offers a practical approach to semi-automated interleaved planning and scheduling of military tasks. Originating as an SBIR and supported by Army-CECOM, the Battle Command Battle Labs (BCBL) at Ft. Leavenworth and Huachuca, and by Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), CADET evolved into the most capable technology available today for planning of tactical operations.
CADET can automatically generate unit routes based on route segment factors such as threat, accessibility, concealment, and canalization. Integrated with the CECOM’s Battlefield, Planning, and Visualization (BPV) system, CADET performs detailed planning while BPV provides visualization of movements. In the DARPA CPOF program, CADET was integrated with the FOX-GA system. This integration utilizes transfer of XML information which conforms to a generic XML framework passed through Java Messaging Service (JMS). This XML file is translated into high-level COA in CADET through the utilization of XSL technologies. Within the ICCES system and experiments conducted by BCBL-L, CADET obtains its input from computerized sketching and statement-entry modules. Integrated with ASAS-Light system, CADET automatically extracts data from the ASAS database, and generates and schedules ISR tasks for assets such as UAVs and others, based on the maneuver COA.
