A visualization method of measuring the effectiveness of early warning and detection network based on simulation

Computer simulations are often employed by operational research analysts to evaluate the relative effectiveness of various combinations of military equipment and tactics (i.e., options) for specific tasks within a conflict scenario. In order to value the effectiveness of Early Warning and Detection (EW&D) network, this article proposing a visualization method of Measuring the Effectiveness based on simulation. This method switches the problem into the task with clear military meaning, appraises the degree of completion of these missions respectively, and represents it visually. In this paper, the process of the evaluation based on simulation is discussed, in addition evaluation indictors and representative missions are presented. At last, we verify the method by analyzing an example briefly that proves the practicality of the method.
