The paper describes international
conflicts as complex confrontations where global actors clash over multiple, often
overlapping, interests related to such areas and dimensions as security
& military, economy & geopolitics, social & cultural, cyber &
information and others, with reviewing different ideas and existing publications
in them. It also briefs the developed Spatial Grasp Technology (SGT) and
its Spatial Grasp Language (SGL) oriented on creation, investigation, and management
or large distributed systems of different natures, while providing examples of SGL
programming in both physical and virtual worlds. Main ideas and organization of
the multidimensional management project, currently in the development, are discussed.
An example of multidimensional conflict management using interacting physical, economic,
transport, and virtual dimensions is provided in SGL with practical
solutions covering four and three communicating dimensions. The planned further
research in this area is outlined too. Different versions of SGT were successfully
tested on numerous applications in different countries, and its latest version,
especially suitable for multidimensional management,
can be quickly implemented on any existing software or hardware platforms.
