博客來Operators rely more and more on models to accomplish their work; examples include the weapons employment zone displays in cockpits, logistics models for deployment, and battle simulations to decide courses of action. They often do not have much exposure to modeling, and the products they are using do not always supply adequate documentation. The first portion of this paper serves as a primer on modeling for operators. It then proposes a matrix of questions that an operator should know to ask about any model he is using. The next section contains several examples to illustrate the discussion. The last section includes a proposal to use the matrix as a standard format for modelers to pass relevant information to users. If the operators know which questions to ask, and modelers can embed that information inside the models, then overall effectiveness should increase.
