The effectiveness of a networked force depends on many factors, one of which is how people choose to organize it. There are few quantifiable metrics that can discriminate between various networked forces that differ solely in their arrangement, and fewer still that can consistently discriminate between configurations that differ by a single link, regardless of the significance of that link. This chapter presents details of a research aimed to gain insight into how an information age combat force should be organized by presenting an initial attempt to determine the utility of the Perron‐Frobenius Eigenvalue (λPFE) as a measure of the effectiveness of the organization of a networked force. The simplest complete combat network represents all the ways in which sensors, deciders, influencers, and targets interact meaningfully with each other. The first challenge in modeling the information age combat model (IACM) concerned the adjacency matrix representation of the network.
