The objective of this project is to recommend ways in which the capabilities and contributions of special operations forces (SOF) can be better represented in decision aids that support the defense planning, programming, and budgeting process. Phase 1 includes two tasks. Task 1 required RAND to discern the issues central to SOF analysis. The results of Task 1 were briefed to U.S. Special Operations Command staff in October 1991. They are presented here in a condensed form.  aAlso available on the internet via WWW in PDF format.  aDescription based on print version record. 0aSpecial forces (Military science)xDecision makingxMathematical models. 0aSpecial operations (Military science)xDecision makingxMathematical models.1 aHarrell, Margaret C.eauthor.2 aNational Defense Research Institute (U.S.).bInternational Security and Defense Strategy Program.2 aRand Corporation.2 aU.S. Special Operations Command.1 aUnited States.bJoint Chiefs of Staff. 0aRand note ;v3536.41yOnline Accessuhttp://www.rand.org/publications/N/N3536.pdf  c596895d596895
