✦ Synopsis

The development of C'I models is of importance in investigating decision theory as applied to tactical and logistic problems. A recent model due to Meyer can be viewed as a discrete dynamical system in a four-dimensional euclidean space. In this paper, a twodimensional discrete dynamical system is analyzed retaining several basic features of Meyer's model using the tools of nonlinear dynamics in general, and chaos theory in particular. Such fkutures as attractors and repellers are identc$ed and certain values of the parameters which admit chaotic re,qimes including strange attractors or repellers are determined. A substanial dynamic characterization qf a discrete system of dimension greater than one is achieved. I.
