Systems and methods for complexity management
First Claim
1. A method for providing analysis information for a decision, the method comprising:
- developing a story line;
identifying at least one critical decision point within the story line;
characterizing each of the at least one critical decision point;
developing knowledge about each of the at least one critical decision point;
identifying each of the at least one critical decision point of relevance to the decision; and
providing the knowledge corresponding to each identified critical decision point.

Abstract
A method and system for assisting in the prediction, detection, deterrence, prevention and mitigation of potential terrorist attacks. In one embodiment, various scenarios are designed to simulate possible terrorist attacks or other crises. These scenarios are presented to a decision maker operating, for example, under an organizational policy. The scenarios may be presented, for example, in an immersion environment in multimedia format, and the responses of the decision maker are evaluated. The results are then used, for example, to evaluate the effectiveness of the policy, or to evaluate the decision maker for training purposes. The results are also used, for example, in an analogous events library, which a decision maker refers to in an actual crisis.

21. A system for providing assistance for a decision, the system comprising:
-
means for developing a generic scenario analogous to the decision;
means for developing an automated enterprise architecture;
means for integrating the developed generic scenario and the developed automated enterprise architecture;
means for identifying at least one decision option for the decision;

22. A system for providing assistance for a decision, the system comprising:
-
a processor; and
a repository accessible by the processor;
wherein a generic scenario analogous to the decision is developed;
wherein an automated enterprise architecture is developed via the processor;
wherein the developed generic scenario and the developed automated enterprise architecture is integrated;
wherein at least one decision option for the decision is identified;
wherein each of the at least one decision option is prioritized; and
wherein at least one mitigating strategy for each of the at least one decision option is identified.

23. A method for validating an epistemological logic block, the method comprising:
-
identifying at least one epistemology and at least one scientific theory;
determining a degree of applicability of a plurality of cognitive frames for each of the at least one epistemology and each of the at least one scientific theory using a bipolar instrument; and
producing a output for the plurality of cognitive frames compared to the one epistemology and the at least one scientific theory. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25)
