Abstract :
Tremendous amounts and types of information are available on today\´s battlefields. Military intelligence analysts are responsible for sifting through this information and providing commanders with the appropriate portion that is accurate, timely, and relevant to their particular mission characteristics. There is no doubt that analysts would benefit from automated tools to help them quickly identify which information is of "value" in a given context. The research discussed in this paper proposes a method for assessing the impacts of a fuzzy-based military decision support system.
