news reports to "monitor and predict war/peace scenarios" for
international events, countries, military alliances and guerilla
groups has been announced by Kilborn House Ltd. State of War,
which analyzes the data and predicts the statistical likelihood
of the situations, also scores the mass medium selected on its
level of accuracy and coverage.
