Overview: Network-organized forces are hypothesized to give better efficiency and robustness through more efficient utilization of resources, less idle time and increased flexibility. In the long-term one may expect all military components to be part of one networked unity, but until then, in the short term, one may gain from improving on the fragmented networks of today. The model, a stochastic program, implemented as a multi-stage mixed-integer program, solves a high-level decisions problem at the operational level. It incorporates two aspects that are most important in the context of network-organized forces.
