Abstract
The research proposes a simulation model developed by the authors to support CIMIC (Civil- military cooperation) and PSYOPs (psychological operations) operational planning in complex scenarios (i.e. Afghanistan) characterized by crisis and conflicts. The research is related to CAPRICORN R&D Project (CIMIC and Planning Research In Complex Operational Realistic Network), sponsored by EDA (European Defense Agency). The CAPRICORN model is based on a new generation of IA-CGF (Intelligent Agents for Computer Generated Forces) that is developed by the authors and is able to reproduce human factors as well as social and cultural aspects within the population. The authors provide the experimentation approach used to validate and test the model by strongly involving users and SME (Subject Matter Experts) and present the experimental analysis of results based on Design of Experiment techniques MSpE (Mean Square pure Error) and sensitivity analysis.
