This report discusses research by the RAND Advanced Simulation Language (RASL) project. The goal of this project was to develop knowledge-based modeling techniques that integrate simulation and planning in order to answer strategic mobility questions that go beyond the "What if...?" capabilities of traditional simulation: questions such as "Can a given event ever happen?" "Under what conditions will an event happen?" or "How can a desired result be achieved?" The report presents an in-depth description of the Declarative MODeling formalism (DMOD) that was developed by the RASL project. DMOD can be thought of as an attempt to formulate a logical description of the event-scheduling view of discrete-event simulation. Formal proofs of the soundness and completeness of the DMOD approach are presented, along with a number of detailed examples of how to perform modeling using DMOD.
In addition to the defeat of conventional enemy forces, Army units and leaders must be able to defeat unconventional forces, develop partner forces, protect local populations, and support civil functions. This report examines the adequacy of the Army Training and Leader Development (ATLD) system management processes, identifies areas for improvement, and develops directions that the Army could take to improve its ATLD management processes.

Presents the results of a preliminary investigation into the feasibility of using emulation as a means of preserving digital publications in accessible, authentic, and usable form within a deposit library, including proposed data, metadata and procedural models to support.
Hello reader. You have just picked up a book that might be some help to you in your life. How can this book be helpful? This book is designed to solve some of the many problems that a person has in their life. Techniques are suggested to alleviate these problems, and motivation is given. We all have a constant battle going on in our minds, and these books will strengthen you for the battle. This current book is full of precepts that will challenge the readers mind, causing reflection, introspection and contemplation. No matter what kind of person you are, you probably can find a place in my book. The book is divided into three parts, using three different writing styles. This challenges the readers perceptions, and forces reflection. Though both are important, the inner person, instead of the outer, is more or less concentrated on. The true object of this book, and its predecessors, is to strengthen the spirit that lies in one, and make one more apt to accomplish goals. I hope this book does just that for you, and I hope much more. May the reader persevere in their quest for enimajik!
This study examined how the Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL) Initiative might encourage the reuse of digital training content as a strategy to reduce the cost of its development. While findings highlighted a number of current challenges with the reuse option, one conclusion is that ADL can foster more reuse by taking a proactive approach in supporting training development organizations that are attempting to implement a reuse strategy.
øIt would be unusual for a framework as powerful and predictive as the Competing Values Framework to remain unchallenged and absent of criticism. In addition to updating the examples and references, this second edition provides a new chapter motivated
This third edition of Competing Values Leadership serves as the key source for understanding and using the Competing Values Framework, one of the most widely used and highly cited frameworks in the world for understanding human behavior, leadership, and organizations. The authors of the framework, who have been at the foundation of developing, applying, and studying this framework for more than four decades, explain how it helps foster successful leadership, innovation, culture change, financial performance, organizational effectiveness, and value creation.
This is a manual for collectors, sellers and the curious with over 630 full-color photos of Culver glassware patterns, including those of 132 patterns identified by original pattern name – most with known years of production. The manual also includes common hardware sold with Culver glassware and barware sets, tips for the care and maintenance of Culver glassware, advice on shipping glass, unknown names and dates of verified Culver patterns featuring animals, glass jewel-studs, holiday themes, maritime themes, people & places, plants, fruits & vegetables and miscellaneous others. The manual also has information about Culver glassware shapes/pieces and types of Culver beverage glasses. Vintage Culver advertizing and sales-catalog print images are found throughout.
