The simulation model was developed at the IABG Institute for the needs of the German Army and upgraded in cooperation with the Slovenian Army. Fuzzy algorithms in the simulator were developed by dr. Tomaž Savšek. The system represented the beginning and core of the Centre for Operational Research and Simulations and was deployed by the Ministry of Defense in 1999.
