2. Here is another problem that addresses a military problem. The Joint Staff is evaluating several force structure alternatives using a combat simulation model. They are interested in the ability of the force to ght and win in a large scale combat operation. The measures that they have decided to use (and that will be computed as output from the simulation model) are Probability of Victory, Number of Casualties (in number of people), and Time to Mission Accomplishment (in months). To evaluate the alternatives a value function must be constructed. For that purpose, the following information is glven. The single dimensional value function for Probability of Victory is piecewise linear such that P[v] = 0 has zero value, P[v] = .5 has a value score of .25, and P[v] = 1 has a value of 1. It is linear in between. The single dimensional value function for Numbers of Casualties which range from a low of 250 to a high of 1500, is exponential with a midvalue at 500. The single dimensional value mction for time to mission accomplishment which ranges between 2 months and 18 months is linear. The decision maker was elicited and identied the following alternatives between which she was indifferent: A B Time to Mission Accomplishment 6 months 12 months Casualties 700 350 A B Casualties 1000 800 Probability of Victory .95 .80 Compute the weights for the attributes. Write down the complete value function
