Framework to Evaluate Operational Effectiveness Based on Extended IDEF3 Method

Abstract

Facing the complexity of military operational modeling and the difficulty of operational effectiveness evaluation, based on extended IDEF3, this paper proposes a framework to evaluate operational effectiveness. Bring forward the basic structure of this framework and extend the UOB’s attributes through introducing the combat action effectiveness. By the task decomposition and the "series-parallel connection" model framework aggregation, it can meet the needs of mapping the single combat action effectiveness to task-based operational effectiveness so as to assess the effectiveness of armies aiming at a specific task. Finally, take an air defense brigade performing air defense task for example to prove this framework used to evaluate the operational effectiveness is feasible.
