  • Abstract
    This paper provides a framework for assessing hypothesized/simulated emergencies in order to provide quick protection for the populace and infrastructure; and also to protect first responders. These challenges - the need to respond quickly and safely - are the focus for how we must sense, represent, and act upon these progressively revealed events. And this must be done continually. In general, hypergame theory (Vane 2000) provides an approach to pre-planning, situational discovery and model updating to help friendly leadership to decide what to do next in any adversarial scenario
