| Sumario: | The authors describe the Shaping Terrorist Organization Network Efficiency (STONE) software platform that they developed with the aim of destabilizing terrorist organizations. Topics discussed include STONE algorithms' identification of operatives in a terrorist network whose removal would have a maximum detrimental effect on the organization, the ability to accurately predict who will replace a removed terrorist leader, and STONE's testing on data concerning real-life terrorist groups. Also addressed are the STONE algorithms called Terrorist Successor Problem, Multiple Terrorist Successor Problem, and Terrorist Network Reshaping Problem.
