“DRDC Toronto is now actively building its capacity for human sciences in a new research domain: Understanding, prediction and influence of adversaries’ intent …. DRDC requires contractual support for research in this new area. In particular, the Adversarial Intent Section (AIS) of DRDC Toronto anticipates a requirement for significant research effort that addresses the following general topic:
(a) eludication of contemporary security concepts such as Effects-based Approaches to Operations (EBAO), Defence Development and Diplomacy (3D), and the Comprehensive approach (CA) and their use in military capability development and doctrine;
(b) understanding the social, organizational, and cognitive determinants of human capabilities for the effective production of military and civilian intelligence pertinent to domestic and international issues;
(c) influence processes that play a role in conflict-ridden environments characterized by complex interactions among adversaries, allied forces, and bystander groups; (and)
(d) methods and tools for structuring, portraying and analyzing complex contemporary security environments.”
