Abstract: A simple method for analyzing competitive situations quantitatively. The competitive situation is defined by six inputs. Two different measures of effectiveness are developed for the offensive and one for the conservative modes of action. The method provides means for determining optimal distribution of disposable resources between offensive and defensive systems, if input data are well enough established. Although written mainly in military terms, it can be used for the analysis of all kinds of competitive situations.
