      Armin Fügenschuh is full professor for engineering mathematics and numerics of optimization at the Brandenburg University of Technology in Cottbus (BTU). He studied mathematics from 1995 to 2000 in Oldenburg, Germany, and at the Jagiellonian University in Cracow, Poland. In 2000, he became a research associate at the Darmstadt University of Technology where he received a doctorate degree in 2005. After that he held postdoc positions in Darmstadt, Berlin, Atlanta (Georgia, USA), and Erlangen. Between 2013 and 2017 he was an associate professor at the Helmut Schmidt University/University of the Federal Armed Forces (HSU) in Hamburg. His main research interests are linear and nonlinear mixed‐integer programming and their applications, with a focus on operations research problems from engineering, transportation, and logistics. His further interest is in wargaming. He gave several courses at the HSU on board game conflict simulations as well as computer‐based conflict simulation tools. He is a member of several academic societies (GOR, SIAM, DMV, EMS, VDI). His work was awarded with several academic prizes, such as the EURO Excellence in Practice Award (2016) or a Dissertation Award of the German OR Society.

Richard Haberlin is a senior principal computer scientist and chief engineer of the Modeling, Simulation, Experimentation and Analysis Technical Center at The MITRE Corporation in McLean, VA. He holds a PhD and MS in operations research from George Mason University and a BS in ocean engineering from the US Naval Academy. His research interests include inferential reasoning and decision support aided through interactive visualization. He is also evaluating application of reusable frameworks with combat simulations to support rapid integration of multiple algorithmic solutions including mixed‐integer linear programming and artificial intelligence. He leverages 20 years of navy operational and staff experience to produce tailored, relevant, and defensible analyses informing executive‐level decisions across a wide breadth of government organizations. He serves on the editorial board of ASCE Infrastructure Systems and holds membership with the MITRE Veteran’s Council and the Military Officers Association of America (MOAA).

      Dean S. Hartley III is the principal of Hartley Consulting. Previously he was a senior member of the Research Staff at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Hartley graduated summa cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa, from Wofford College in 1968, majoring in mathematics and foreign languages. He received his PhD in piecewise linear topology from the University of Georgia in 1973. Dr. Hartley is a director of the Military Operations Research Society (MORS), a past vice president of the Institute for Operations Research and Management Science (INFORMS), and a past president of the Military Applications Society (MAS). Dr. Hartley has published An Ontology for Unconventional Conflict, Unconventional Conflict: A Modeling Perspective, Predicting Combat Effects, contributed 10 chapters to eight other books, and written more than 150 articles and technical documents. Hartley received the Koopman Prize for best publication in military operations research in 1994 and the Steinhardt Prize for lifetime achievement in operations research in 2013.

Alejandro (Andy) Hernandez is an associate professor in the Systems Engineering Department at the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS), Monterey, California. He holds a BS in civil engineering from the U.S. Military Academy, a MS and PhD in operations research from NPS, and a master’s in strategic studies from the Army War College. He is a retired army officer whose assignments include Director of Analysis & Assessment – Iraq, and Chief of the Warfighting Analysis Division in the Department of the Army Programs and Resources Directorate. Dr. Hernandez teaches courses in capability engineering, fundamentals of systems engineering, system suitability, probability and statistics, and research methods. He serves as the deputy director for the Simulation Experiments and Efficient Designs Center and has focused some of his most recent studies on codifying the application of modeling and simulation techniques in mission engineering. His continued research efforts combine scenarios, computerized simulation experiments, systems analysis, and systems engineering methodologies to improve decision‐making for the design, development, operations, and management of complex systems.

      M. Fatih Hocaoğlu is an associate professor at Istanbul Medeniyet (Civilization) University in Turkey and a scientist in simulation, artificial intelligence, and mathematical programming scientist at Agena Information and Defense Technologies Ltd. that he is also the founder of. He holds his PhD in industrial engineering in the area of simulation and qualitative reasoning. His research interests include modeling and simulation, reasoning technologies, operational research (optimization theory), simulation and agent programming languages. He is the designer and developer of a simulation and agent programming language called AdSiF (Agent driven Simulation Framework). He developed several simulation projects in defense domain. Some of these are land‐based air defense simulations, simulation for C4ISR systems, marine warfare simulation, and simulations for civil sectors. He is a member of the Operational Research Society in Turkey. He received multiple awards from the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey.

      Jan Hodicky is a modeling and simulation advisor at the NATO Headquarter Supreme Allied Commander Transformation in Norfolk, Virginia. He earned his PhD in informatics and computer science with a special focus on modeling and simulation of autonomous systems. He is an author of around 100 papers in international journals/conferences, co‐author of the patent of Virtual Reality in Command Control Systems with 23 years of service in the Czech Armed Forces. His research efforts focus on applied modeling and simulation to military problem domains. He has been the head of the Aviation Technology Department at the University of Defense in Brno in 2019 and a member of strategic management in Defense Department at the Centre for the Security and Military Strategic Studies University of Defense in 2018.

Reiner K. Huber is emeritus professor at the German Armed Forces University Munich (UniBwM) where he held the chair of Operations Research and Systems Analysis (with emphasis on defense and security issues) from 1975 to 2000. Prior to this appointment he was head of the systems studies division of IABG which he had joined in 1964 as an analyst after three years of military service in the German Air Force. IABG was the German Defense Ministry’s modeling and analysis institution founded in the early 1960s to support weapon systems and operations assessment, and defense planning. His research at UniBwM included, among others, exploratory analysis for improving military stability in Central Europe between NATO and WP and, after the disintegration of the WP and USSR, the stability of multipolar defense arrangements on a regional and global scale. His recent work is focused on command and control as an invited expert to a NATO project. Dr. Huber received his academic education at the Technical University Munich (TUM) and, as a Fulbright scholar, at the University of Texas in Austin. He was awarded a doctorate (equivalent to a PhD) in 1970 from TUM in aerospace engineering.
