Abstract
PROJECT CONSIM (Conflict Simulation) is a research effort devoted to emulating the processes of human decision making in complex situations requiring value judgements. The goals are (1) the development of a general computer decision aid and (2) a better understanding of how humans learn to improve in their decision making. The computer decision aid is designed to be prescriptive rather than to include the flaws of some particular human or group of humans, although "CONSIM I" did include the capability for incorporating some human imperfections. The model is of a mathematical and statistical nature and includes the following techniques: (1) linear programming, (2) alpha-beta search methods, (3) bayes's theorem, (4) linear evaluation function, (5) pattern recognition techniques, (6) heuristic procedures, (7) computer modeling and simulation of human decision processes, (8) game theory, (9) utility theory, and (10) decision theory.

CONSIM(Conflict Simulator): Risk, cost and benefit in political simulations
ACM '71: Proceedings of the 1971 26th annual conferenceThe development and use of CONSIM (Conflict Simulator), a computer program designed to heurististically simulate decision making, is described. A typical example is used to evaluate and analyze the methodology of CONSIM. The simulation model is designed ...
