Complex and involved problems are encountered during the planning and procurement of weapons for use in conventional warfare contingencies. The application of operations research techniques as tools may assist the decision maker in solving these problems, thus leading to a cohesive and logical development, production, and procurement plan. Linear programming, value techniques, and excursions and applications in the area of tactical strategy are some of the techniques and problems that are brought into the decision maker's judgement area.

A two-step optimization procedure using linear programming is employed to obtain a near-optimal solution to the large-scale, multiple-weapon type allocation problem. Initially, the target system is partitioned into target categories, each of which contains targets of equal worth and similar characteristics. Then, depending upon the requirements of the particular problem addressed, one of three different linear programming models is used to allocate the available supply of weapons among the target categories. Instead of inputing a point value for each target category, as is frequently done in other allocation models, in these models the user indicates a desired ratio of the probability of survival of the various categories. After the allocation of weapons among the categories has been accomplished, an integer programming model is used to assign weapons to individual targets within each category so as to minimize the average probability of survival of the category. These models have been programmed for an IBM 7090 computer at Headquarters Strategic Air Command. (Author).

Real-world complex optimization problems are difficult to solve. Agent-based optimization approaches have proved useful in solving a wide variety of problems including optimization problems. Agent-based techniques can be used in military planning for solving allocation problems such as the weapons to targets assignment problem. Classical methods like linear programming (LP) have been used for solving weapons to targets assignment problems. LP approaches provide optimal solutions quickly, but in real-time planning when there are minor changes to input, LP exhibits widely varied solutions. This can be a problem in practice. This research study considers two agent-based optimization approaches, the Stable Marriage Algorithm (SMA) and the Ant-Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm, for solving the weapons to targets assignment problem. In real-time defense planning and re-planning scenario, the effect of the input data changes on the solutions provided by SMA and ACO is observed. An interactive tool is developed in Visual Basic 6.0 for performing the assignment of weapons to targets using either of the agent-based optimization algorithms. An empirical analysis for determining the best parameter settings for finding good solutions for ACO algorithm is carried out. The performance of SMA and ACO is compared in terms of solution quality and persistence characteristics. Results indicate better performance of SMA than ACO in terms of persistence. In terms of solution quality, ACO provides solutions with lower assignment cost values than SMA.
