      Dariusz Pierzchała is an assistant professor at the Faculty of Cybernetics at the Military University of Technology (MUT) in Warsaw, Poland. He graduated from MUT with a MSc degree in information systems. In 2002 he obtained PhD in simulation and decision support. He is also Polish member of STO/NATO Modelling and Simulation Group. He has been teaching a variety of subjects over the last 15 years, from computer engineering to modeling and simulation and knowledge management. With the beginning of 2013, on retiring from the Polish Armed Forces as Colonel, he assumed the position of civilian assistant professor and deputy director at the Institute of Computer and Information Systems. His scientific interests concern decision support systems, machine learning, and computer simulation in the domain of national security, defense and crisis management. He received multiple awards, individually and as a team member, including the NATO STO Scientific Achievement Award (2015).

      Phillip E. Pournelle retired as commander from the US Navy after 26 years of service as a surface warfare officer. He served on cruisers, destroyers, amphibious ships, and an experimental high‐speed vessel. He served on the Navy Staff doing campaign analysis, at the Office of Secretary of Defense Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation, and at the Office of Net Assessment. He is now the senior director for wargaming and analysis at the Long‐Term Strategy Group. He has a master of science degree from the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California. He lives in Fairfax, Virginia.

Joseph Saur is currently working as a software engineer for Taurus TeleSYS on an R&D project supporting Newport News Shipbuilding in Virginia. He holds an MS/CS and a BS/CS from Old Dominion University, graduated w/distinction from the Naval War College, and a BS in biology from St. John's University. A wargamer for over 50 years, he has studied both wargaming and combat modeling academically, has taught multiple classes in computer science at a variety on institutions, including Georgia Tech, Regent University, and ECPI. He also taught courses in wargaming at the Marine Corps University and Marine Corps Warfighting Lab. He served as the government's assessment lead for the DARPA/JFCOM "Integrated Battle Command" project, which attempted to create an integrated set of models representing the entire Political, Military, Economic, Social, Infrastructure and Information (PMESII) spectrum, and the ability to postulate Diplomatic, Information, Military and Economic (DIME) Courses of Action (COA) in an attempt to predict (short‐term) potential multi‐dimensional outcomes.

      Johannes Schmidt studied business mathematics from 2013 to 2018 at the Freiberg University of Mining and Technology, Germany. Since 2018 he is a research associate at the Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus‐Senftenberg. He works in the field of mixed‐integer optimization with differential equation‐based constraints. He is particularly interested in the mission planning of unmanned aerial vehicles.

      Rikke Amilde Seehuus is a senior scientist at FFI, Kjeller Norway. She holds a PhD in computer science and a MSc in mathematics from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway.
