military deployments have concluded that mixed groups are less common than tank groups, which in turn are less common than APC groups. When tanks are part of a mixed group, they usually travel on OR/STAT 719 CSI 775 – Midterm Exam Spring 2014 Page 2 of 2 the road, whereas when they are in tank groups they usually travel off the road. Extend the model of part a) to handle groups of vehicles. Describe the extensions you made to your model – the nodes, the states and the probability distributions.…
