Patriot Script User Guide (V.1.0.12)

Patriot Script is a lightweight desktop application that provides user access to the computationally intensive functions of the PATRIOT server. An analyst can set up attack scenarios, including the attack origin and destination locations, the attack device, and the GNDA options. Patriot Script calls on the PATRIOT server to generate attack routes and evaluate their reliabilities. Patriot Script results are output to a comma separated values file that can be used for statistical analysis. Routes generated by Patriot Script can be saved as .kml files for visualization in Google Earth or Patriot Viewer.

Patriot Viewer User Guide (V.1.3.0)

Patriot Viewer is a component of PEM 1.3.0 that lets an analyst visualize the routes generated by PATRIOT, the PATRIOT transportation network, and global nuclear defense architecture (GNDA) assets. Patriot Viewer satisfies two requirement thresholds from the PEM Requirements Document (March 3, 2014).

2012 PATRIOT SCRIPT User's Guide

PATRIOT Script is an application that executes Patriot batch runs. This document provides a description of this application and how to run it. The basic user access tool PATRIOT Client allows a user to generate several most reliable paths in one run: one can specify a list of sources (origins) and targets, and PATRIOT finds for a given architecture option and one choice of device all the most reliable paths between all these sources and targets. The main objective of PATRIOT Script is to provide a tool for making automatic PATRIOT runs not only for a prespecified set of sources and targets, but also for a pre-specified set of devices and various architecture options. Running PATRIOT Script requires two basic steps that will be explained in more detail next: (1) Pre-preparation of an excel spreadsheet with the information about the desired runs; and (2) Opening the PATRIOT Script application, reading in the excel-spreadsheet and running the desired scenarios. Sections 1 and 2 explain each of these steps, and section 3 describes the output of the PATRIOT Script. For a detail description of the models and data behind PATRIOT and a detailed explanation of all the architecture options see [1]. For instructions of how to run PATRIOT Client see [2].
