Summary | The Capabilities Capacities and Constraints (CAP2CON) MMOWGLI game is intended to support uniformed Navy professionals exploring how best to achieve the best support by Navy reserve forces for active duty mission requirements. The Massive Multiplayer Online War Game Leveraging the Internet (MMOWGLI) is a Web-based idea-exploration game that encourages innovative thinking about some of the world's most wicked problems. MMOWGLI is designed to support large number of distributed global players working together on idea generation and action planning, with an eye towards surfacing innovative outlier strategies. For the CAP2CON challenges at hand, we need to better understand the opportunities and identify effective paths forward. Broad collaboration using MMOWGLI to conduct brainstorming of new ideas and generating action. plan alternatives is expected to be essential for charting the way ahead for this major Navy-wide initiative. This project is being pursued in partnership and with matching support by the Navy Warfare Development Command (NWDC), Office of the Chief of Navy Reserve (OCNR) and the Office of Naval Research (ONR). |
