Abstract : This report describes final results of a small project sponsored by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the intention of which was to identify useful directions for further work on multiresolution modeling (MRM). The work was largely accomplished in the Applied Sciences and Technology Center of RAND's National Defense Research Institute (NDRI), a federally funded research and development center (FFRDC) sponsored by the Office of the Secretary of Defense, the Joint Staff, the unified commands, and the defense agencies. Some of the modeling reflected here in simplified form was accomplished in the Planning Future Forces and Transforming the Force projects sponsored by NDRl's advisory board. NDRI also provided additional research-support funding to complete the work and present it at conferences.
