Abstract :
This paper describes a decision support system for military operations based on intelligent agents dedicated to the planning and shaping activities. The system has a 3D visualization toolkit for the modeling of the war virtual scenario, which is represented by a 3D mesh using a height map of the actual battle space. The intelligent agents approach is used to support the commanders´ decisions in conformity with a known combat doctrine. Each troop is designed as an agent, where its actions are described as a set of prefixed action-rules.
