Abstract
The CORps DEFence model, called CORDEF, simulates non nuclear ground force interaction in a forward defence up to Army Corps level. The simulation includes both containment and counter attack type operations, using several division sized simulations in parallel. CORDEF was developed in 1980/1981 to provide a means to study future force structures of the Army Corps and to evaluate the effectiveness of material procurement policies and/or defined military tactics. In these types of studies a military command level will be adequate only down to the battalion. A higher resolution requires too much computer and analysis time. The military users of the model are mostly interested in the overall results instead of in low level details. In some cases, however, they would like more detail.
