Charles River Analytics, a developer of intelligent systems solutions, developed an automated decision-support system called ACACIA, or the Assessment of Adversary Capability and Capacity via Intelligence Analysis, to help Air Force intelligence analysts assess an adversary’s capabilities. ACACIA supports intelligence analysts in assessing data by helping them track and integrate factors used in the assessment. ACACIA helps organize and collect these relevant factors from various data sources, helping the analyst create the “big picture” from answers to individual questions.
