Summary	In support of the development of a synthetic environment for modeling the impact of bio-terror weapons, this project will address a number of relevant issues in the area of model management and decision support, namely: - Statistical model integration: Incorporate sophisticated econometric modeling capabilities as part of the agent behavior as well as user decision support tools while playing the simulation. - OR/MS model interfaces: Integrate existing operations research and management science mathematical modeling software tools such as multi-criteria decision making models into the synthetic environment. - Agent model integration: Examine the integration of agent-based model modules into larger integrated agent-based environments. - Visualization: Develop GIS-based interfaces to display measures of performance with respect to bio-terror attacks. - Data mining for agent behavior: Use statistical software to develop and test various agent behaviors.
