Summary | This research focuses on JIEDDO's contention that a more complete solution to the IED problem can be achieved by intelligently interdicting the IED supply chain. Earlier work by the researchers has developed theoretical models for interdicting IED components as they are being smuggled through a generic transportation network. One game-theoretic model for placing mobile inspection teams has been implemented in VBA (Visual basic for applications), together with a graphic interface based on Microsoft Excel. |
