It contains several additional noteworthy documents, and includes information from his resume, his writings, and his presentations. It contains information about his early MORS affiliations, his service on the MORS BoD, his terms in office on the MORS Executive Council, and as MORS President (MWG 1 May 2006).Prepared with the involvement of CAPT Wayne Hughes, who knew and worked alongside the subject, having served under him on several occasions. Included is a segment entitled "About Charlie Woods by Captain Wayne P. Hughes, Jr., FS, USN (Retired)"

The material outlines the suggested analysis approach described in today's governmental regulations and provides in detail the methodology needed to perform these studies, a requirement which has been passed down to the analysis “shops” of the military services. The paper defines the purpose and scope of the COEA and overviews the important factors and techniques needed to perform these studies. Highlighted are the planning requirements, modeling issues, and the need for various forms of verified and validated data. Discussed is the establishment of measures of merit used to distinguish the worth of the various alternatives under consideration, as well as the simulation tools used to define and evaluate the effectiveness of operations and ...

In order to properly staff future C2 operations centers with capable individuals and operational teams, attention needs to be directed to the analysis of the evolving C2 operator training requirements and team dynamics that are being driven by modern technology and changing concepts of operations. This paper will describe the assessment approach and methodology employed by the Air Force Research Laboratory's Warfighter Training Research Division, Information Systems Training Branch, Brooks AFB, TX (AFRL/HEAI) researchers as they observed the C2 operators in the Time Critical Targeting Cell (TCTC) during Joint Expeditionary Force eXperiment 2000 (JEFX 00). The AFRL/HEAI researchers followed a human factors oriented approach in developing a data collection m...
