Global Classroom: ICE Case Study Assignments
Final: Analyze a Current Conflict

The Format for the ICE Expert Scenario Web Page
The main page of the web site will have the following options in the following
format and order. Give me one HMTL file in the end with the links accessing
internal places on the web page. IO will assign a mnemonic, number, and
name to the case.
1. The ICE Expert Scenario
Use the ICE Case Template to develop and code the scenario just as you
had in developing the historical case study. You will have to speculate,
hypothesize and generally invent a scenario with some detail. I am looking
for realistic and plausible case scenarios with a timeline of events that
builds the scenario over time. The “Description” should be where
you develop the scenario. The others categories and their outcomes should
be an outgrowth on the idealized scenario. Here is the ICE case template.

2. ICE Expert Pattern Matching System Results
Here is the ICE Expert System Web page.
http://199.44.76.131/jfranzel/ice_testing/search_ice.cfm
a. Run the Basic Results and Describe the Results
b. Add some Weights, Re-run the Basic Results, and Describe the Results
c. Run the Relevance and the Reliability Options and Describe the Results
3. Analysis of the Results
a. Analysis of Case Matches
b. Analysis of Relevance and Reliability
c. Analysis of Conflict and Environment Aspects
4. Conclusions and Recommendations
a. Conclusions
Are there any general or over-arching conclusions you can draw from this scenario
and its analysis that are informativbe about the general nature of the realtionship
between conflict and environment?
b. Recommendations
What can be done to mitigate or even avoid the possibility of the conflict?
