CAX Methodology for Civil Protection Purposes and Civil Military Co operation
Authors: Konstantinos Tsiakalos
Abstract
The main idea of this paper is to prove that Computer Assisted Exercises methodology, based on modeling and simulation for military operations mainly, can be used for civil protection operations and civil ? military co operation. Beginning with a general overview of the fundamentals of CAX and continuing with a proposal for reforming the methodology in a more appropriate way for civil protection operations, there is a first contact and understanding of it. CAX can become the important tool for creating ?reactions? for national, multinational and international organizations in order to face unexpected actions that may harm the security, health and even life of civilians. By playing scenarios representing rational or irrational situations threatening civilians life in general, all agencies responsible for civilian protection can be trained in a realistic environment and test their capabilities. Matters of training costs and exercise budgets are also discussed here as it is obvious that the usage of CAX methodology can eliminate both. Furthermore, the presentation of game theory models for improving all phases of the CAX methodology is providing an innovative idea which is maximizing the benefits of a CAX and produces a secure path for studying the results of it.
