of the Navy After Next. Clients include traditional defense
industry analysis firms, new science start-ups and prestigious
academic research institutions. Lectures internationally
on the future of naval forces while continuing to research, publish
and consult.
Chief of Naval Operations Strategic Studies Group 1997-2000
Operations Research Analyst. Naval
futurist and military innovator. Researched and reported on the
technical and operational merits of technologies that are expected
to mature in 2030-2050. Conducted independent research on the
military application of the "New Sciences" (e.g., Complexity
Theory, Evolutionary Computation, etc.). Lectured on Operational
Art, Information Theory, New Sciences and Operations Research.
Conducted war games to explore and test future concepts. Occasional
consultant to President, Naval War College, Naval War College
faculty, and Navy Warfare Development Command staff. Co-founder
of the Newport Institute for Information Age Warfare Studies.
Key
member of this think tank that takes tasking from and reports
directly to the CNO. The primary mission of the SSG is to
develop the Navys corporate strategic investment plan by generating
revolutionary naval warfare innovations. Historically, over
half the members of this prestigious group have been selected
for flag officer. Year-long curriculum includes personal
interviews with the Naval Services most senior flag officers,
on-site inspections of leading industrial and DoD innovation centers,
and advanced colloquia with noted academics, industry leaders,
and distinguished scientists. Primary contributor to most
of the concepts presented to the CNO. Briefed concepts to
Commandant of the Marine Corps, VCNO, and OPNAV principals.

Joint Warfare System (JWARS) model, succeeded in portraying the
impact of Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence,
Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) on battle outcomes.
Managed development of mathematical representations, software
production and system employment policy.
Primary
technical agent for Office of the Chief of Naval Operations, Assessment
Division (N81), on a hand-picked team designing and developing
the Joint Warfare System. The mission of this five-year, $100
million project was to invent DoDs primary analytic tool for
supporting future billion-dollar investment decisions and theater
command decision making. Prescribed and adapted mathematical
representations of naval warfare for a joint campaign model.
Developed consensus for detailed technical requirements proposed
by competing constituents. Authored and delivered program
status briefings to senior decision-makers and influential operations
research professionals (e.g., Assistant SECDEF, Defense Science
Board, National Academy of Sciences, Joint Requirements Oversight
Council). Managed Users Group participation. Monitored
