Author

  • Ladislav Dolanský

    (Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts)

Abstract

The mathematical models and methods of analysis of opposing forces, stemming from the original Lanchester equations are summarized in terms of two broad categories: (a) deterministic models, (b) stochastic models. The present limitations of previous methods are used to identify topics that require attention in the future.
