Abstract

QJM is a widely used method of predicting battle results and attrition. A spreadsheet implementation of the method is presented. The implementation enhances the basic framework e.g. by stochastic simulation. Special attention in the implementation has been paid to the graphical user interface and usability issues. We outline which parts of the original method are still valid, and which parts should be changed to reflect technical and tactical developments. The ways how the implementation takes these issues into account are reviewed and presented. The enhancements are put into the right context by comparing the method with other macro-level combat models.
