The Stovepipe Problem

Current State: Defense problems are solved in monolithic, stovepiped modeling and simulation frameworks.

The Lore-Based Solution

Approach: Encode complex military domains as composable narrative lore structures with embedded rule systems.

Result: Rapid multi-domain scenario modeling in hours, not years, through natural language interface.

Innovation: Narrative encoding serves as reduced order model—complex domain dynamics compressed into composable character entities with interaction rules.

Composition Rules: Type-Safe Multi-Domain Integration

These rules act as a dependent type system—ensuring only valid multi-domain compositions are generated.

REQUIRES Air Sovereigns REQUIRE Orbital Watchers for beyond-visual-range targeting
ENABLES Wave Masters PROVIDE launch platform for Air Sovereigns (carrier operations)
DEPENDS Depth Hunters DEPEND ON Star Messengers for deep ocean navigation
COORDINATES Ground Commanders REQUIRE Signal Seers to coordinate with Network Weavers
VULNERABLE Supply Lines VULNERABLE TO Network Weavers disrupting logistics networks
PROTECTS Coastal Wardens PROTECT Wave Masters from Depth Hunters (anti-submarine warfare)
MULTIPLIES Sky Sentinels + Orbital Watchers MULTIPLY effectiveness of Storm Wardens (targeting synergy)
COUNTERS Digital Wardens COUNTER Network Weavers (cyber defense vs offense)

Scenario Demonstration: Anti-Access/Area-Denial (A2/AD) Challenge

Natural Language Input (TA3)

"Contested island chain in Pacific theater. Enemy has deployed advanced A2/AD capabilities including long-range anti-ship missiles, integrated air defense systems, and cyber warfare units targeting naval command and control. Mission: Establish sea lane access and secure forward operating base within 72 hours."

Generated Multi-Domain Operation (Composed Model)

PHASE 1: ISR & CYBER

Orbital Watchers establish continuous surveillance of A2/AD systems. Signal Seers map enemy communication networks. Digital Wardens establish defensive perimeter around friendly C2 networks to prevent enemy cyber disruption.

PHASE 2: CYBER DISRUPTION

Network Weavers (coordinated by Signal Seers) disrupt enemy air defense radar networks and anti-ship missile targeting systems. Timing synchronized with kinetic operations to create temporary vulnerability windows.

PHASE 3: STEALTH PENETRATION

Depth Hunters (guided by Star Messengers) penetrate A2/AD zone underwater, establishing forward sensor network. Wave Masters position outside A2/AD range (protected by Coastal Wardens from submarine threats).

PHASE 4: AIR SUPERIORITY

Air Sovereigns launch from Wave Masters, using targeting data from Orbital Watchers + Depth Hunters to strike degraded air defense systems during cyber-created vulnerability windows.

PHASE 5: BEACHHEAD

Storm Wardens (coordinated by Sky Sentinels + Orbital Watchers) suppress remaining coastal defenses. Ground Commanders and Terrain Walkers secure island beachhead under Digital Warden protection.

PHASE 6: SUSTAINMENT

Supply Lines establish secure logistics corridor (protected by Coastal Wardens at sea, Digital Wardens in cyber domain). Forward operating base operational within 68 hours.

✓ Type Safety Verified: All entity compositions validated by rule system. No Air Sovereign operations without Orbital Watcher support. No Depth Hunter navigation without Star Messenger coordination. All Supply Line operations protected by Digital Wardens against Network Weaver threats.

DARPAVERSE Technical Area Alignment

TA1: Adaptive Software Repository

✓ Reduced Order Models: Complex military domains compressed into narrative entity structures with capability/constraint parameters.

✓ Composable Representations: Entity-based encoding allows mixing Air + Cyber + Space operations through shared rule framework.

✓ Interoperable Observables: Capabilities (Observation, Disruption, Targeting) standardized across domains.

✓ Data-Derived: Models generated from doctrinal data, historical operations, and capability specifications using AI-assisted encoding.

TA2: Adaptive Co-design and Orchestration

✓ Dependent Type System: Entity types serve as constraints defining complex relationships between models.

Type-as-Constraint Example:

AirSovereign<Range> where Range > VisualRange requires OrbitalWatcher<Active>

The type of the operation depends on available entities. An AirSovereign operating beyond visual range becomes a different type of operation (BVR Strike) that requires OrbitalWatcher dependency. The type system enforces this at composition time.

✓ Parameters Encoded in Types: DepthHunter<NavigationAccuracy: High> depends on StarMessenger<GPS: Available>—parameter requirements encoded in dependent types.

✓ Boundary Conditions as Type Constraints: WaveMaster<Position> where Distance(Position, A2AD_Range) > Safety_Margin enforces spatial boundary conditions through type system.

✓ Unit Consistency: Composition rules enforce unit matching (AirSovereign range in nautical miles matches WaveMaster position in nautical miles, preventing unit mismatch errors).

✓ Multi-Objective Optimization: Scenario generation balances objectives (speed, stealth, force protection) through entity selection validated by type constraints.

✓ Dynamic Workflows: Phased operations emerge from entity interaction rules—type checking ensures only valid transitions between phases.

TA3: Adaptive Definition and Visualization

✓ Natural Language Interface: Scenario described in plain language ("Contested island chain with A2/AD capabilities").

✓ Non-Technical User Access: Narrative framework bridges gap—warfighters understand story, system enforces formal rules.

✓ Semi-Formal to Formal: Natural language input transformed into composed entity operations validated by rule system.

✓ Rapid Iteration: Modify scenario parameters, regenerate composed operation in minutes.
