A Platform based on Complexity Theory will consist of domain specific framework, dynamics, and systems. PACS.i is a framework through modern combat missions can be conveniently managed. PACS stand for Planner, Analyst, Commander and Soldier. While Planner and Analyst define pre and post battle view, soldier models frog’s view of combat in execution and commander bird’s view of same. These roles should handle Population, Spatial, Temporal and Causal dynamics (with their sub-classes). Also four types of Systems - regular, complex, chaos-based and stochastic can realize these architectures with varied benefits and losses. This paper explores the relation between roles, dynamics, and systems. PACS.i framework is result of synergy between all three of these.
