 IntePoint partnered with the Complex Systems Institute (UNCC), Oak
Ridge National Lab, and Georgia Tech on for the ACSES DARPA
project
 We demonstrated the capability to computationally combine
and compare multiple social science theories to provide
robust plausible futures
 The multi-model CAS simulation was incorporated into Vu, an
interdependency consequence analysis capability to extend
the results to include critical infrastructure
 Team is currently authoring a book on complicated CAS
modeling techniques
 The ACSES model has been applied to Mali and Kenya for an ERDC
program
 We continue to drive to a rigorous and actionable modeling
framework that supports more granular, less tightly coupled agent
models
 This unique approach is immediately applicable for training exercises
and JIPOE supporting analysis
 Will require 2 – 3 years of additional development and V&V before
being deployable as a planning and campaign tool.

For the DARPA ACSES project the team developed a platform that integrated
multiple, alternative social science theories into a unified simulation
framework. Additionally, using existing capabilities, we integrated that CAS
model with an infrastructure analysis for a PMESII/COA analysis.
 Social science theories included citizen allegiance and ideology, behavior of
citizen agents, and social mobilization theories
 Demonstrated quantifiable and realistic effects and identified threshold
events for simulation of nonlinear phenomena including both expected and
unexpected results
 Simulates dynamic networks of repeated feedback systems among agents
 Exposes causal relationships that support analysis and insight for DIME
options
The team leveraged the Vu
interdependency analysis
capability for a DARPA project
that incorporated multiple social
science (CAS/agent) leadership
models to obtain a more robust
understanding of population
responses to events/COAs

 IntePoint has teamed with UNC-Charlotte since 2003 to provide the
integrated modeling and simulation capability for a USG program by
translating research into actionable tools.
 IntePoint has experience in net-centric and desktop software
development services in both classified and non-classified environments
 Ideas have been taken from initial concept through research, design,
development, testing, DODIIS accreditation and deployment (TRL 1 – 9)
 IntePoint has a 100% success record in completing all contract deliverables,
within-budget and often ahead of schedule
 The USG invested >$14M in cumulative funding to develop the capability
for interdependency analysis and modeling & simulation capability used
to support functional defeat and system of systems analysis
 By capturing the intellectual property created through these contracts,
IntePoint has independently developed a web-based COTS product (Vu),
obtained three patents, has several pending patents, and 15+ publications
in academic literature
 Our interdependency experience has been applied in multiple DOD
agencies, DHS, and commercially at Wachovia Bank and Wells Fargo
 Recently signed a teaming agreement to leverage Vu to support state of
the art monitoring and analysis for the electric power grid
The IntePoint team has 10+
years of successful collaboration
in transitioning ideas through
research into useful capabilities.

 For a USG program, the team researched, designed, and developed an accredited and
deployed interdependency analysis capability used to support system of systems analysis
 Vu is a domain agnostic analytics capability for integrated modeling and simulation that
helps analysts to better understand multiple complex, interdependent infrastructure
networks (e.g., electrical power, road/rail, petroleum & telecoms, etc.) in context (E.g.,
functional, spatial, temporal, social…)
 Vu helps analysts to visual, understand, and explore:
 Network behaviors
 Network interdependency behaviors
 Cascading effects
 Disruptive and reconstructive events
 Vu supports a broad range of objectives including vulnerability analysis, impact analysis,
training, reconstruction, stability operations
 Visual analytics consist of geospatial, temporal, and logical network graphs
 Extensible platform designed to modularly incorporate external domain models,
relationship modules and data
 Effective in both high and low fidelity data environments
IntePoint is a web enabled
interdependency M&S and
analytics for multiple complex
networks

 The CSI team has several sets of proven
technologies that apply to the study of the impacts
of changes in commodity flows
 CAS using agent based models
 Vu interdependency analytics
 Fusion integration of multiple agent models The IntePoint/CSI technology suite
has components that have been
proven in previous research and
deployment. The capabilities range
from TRL 1 – 9.
