LIBRA AD BELLUM NOVUM: A POLITICAL AND MILITARY ESCALATION IN THE NEAR EAST AS SCENARIO FOR SUPPORT ADVANCED STRATEGIC DECISION MAKING

The paper proposes a mission environment to be used to test simulation frameworks to be used to assess strategic engineering methodologies in decision making. The idea is to use this fictional, but realistic scenario, in order to be used in educational and training environment; indeed, the proposed scenario could be very useful to educate people in mastering strategic engineering methodologies based on combined use of simulation and data analytics. The paper defines the scenario and requirements for such a system and proposes an architecture and implementation solutions based on new MS2G (Modeling, interoperable Simulation and Serious Games) paradigm.
