Distributed Combat Power: The Application of Salvo Theory to Unmanned Systems N2 - This is the first edited volume addressing analysis for unmanned vehicles and its focus is operations research ("how things should used"), rather than engineering ("how things should be built"). The reader will find a broad sampling of studies that treat s wide range of unmanned vehicle topics: search, logistics, urban operations, fight estimation, cost analysis, test and evaluation, command and control, and routing algorithms.
