Abstract :
In this paper a mapping between retail concepts and the JDL model is proposed. More specifically, the benefits of using solutions to military problems as inspiration to retail specific problems are discussed. The somewhat surprising conclusion is that there are several similarities between the military and retail domains, and that these similarities potentially could be exploited. A few examples of retail problems that could benefit from theories and techniques commonly used in the information fusion community are given. All examples are taken from recently started or planned projects within the information fusion research program at the University of Skovde, Sweden
