Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes some of the developments in Command, Control and Communication (C3) systems. The topics cover the design of large real-time man-machine systems, which are now a vital area of intensive scientific and financial investment. C3 systems are for complex resource management and planning, and although this has a predominantly military connotation, similar systems are now developing in civil sector applications, public utilities and banking. Topics discussed include the design and structure of C3 systems, databases, standards, the man-machine interface, and advanced processing, including the sensor data fusion and artificial intelligence. It is the multifaceted nature of C3 that this book seeks to capture. The subject is too vast to survey comprehensively but this text offers the reader an important insight into this critically important aspect of modern technology.

Download or read book The World Wide Military Command and Control System evolution and effectiveness written by David Eric Pearson and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2000 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps the best single way to summarize it is to view the book as a bureaucratic or organizational history. What the author does is to take three distinct historical themes-organization, technology, and ideology and examine how each contributed to the development of WWMCCS and its ability (and frequent inability) to satisfy the demands of national leadership. Whereas earlier works were primarily descriptive, cataloguing the command and control assets then in place or under development, The book offers more analysis by focusing on the issue of how and why WWMCCS developed the way it did. While at first glance less provocative, this approach is potentially more useful for defense decision makers dealing with complex human and technological systems in the post-cold-war era. It also makes for a better story and, I trust, a more interesting read. By necessity, this work is selective. The elements of WWMCCS are so numerous, and the parameters of the system potentially so expansive, that a full treatment is impossible within the compass of a single volume. Indeed, a full treatment of even a single WWMCCS asset or subsystem-the Defense Satellite Communications System, Extremely Low Frequency Communications, the National Military Command System, to name but a few-could itself constitute a substantial work. In its broadest conceptualization, WWMCCS is the world, and my approach has been to deal with the head of the octopus rather than its myriad tentacles.
Download or read book Command Control and Communications C3 Through Test and Evaluation written by Donald D. Loftis and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study looks at the problem of C3 Interoperability within DOD today and assesses the impact that test and evaluation programs may have in assuring C3 systems interoperate. The history of C3 interoperability begins in Vietnam but becomes a central U.S. government issue in the review of the Grenada invasion. Congress was so incensed they passed the Goldwater-Nichols act mandating 'jointness.' Over time this joint development of the DOD may solve C3 interoperability, but in the present and near future our problems are enormous. A certification program for C3 systems is the surest method of arriving at near term interoperability. This certification process features a test and evaluation program encompassing traditional testing and evaluation of joint exercises. Future systems have requirements for interoperability that must be resolved before full scale development occurs. Robotics, space systems and battle simulations are but a few of the systems needing interoperability standards for joint development. We must attack our service parochialism and strive for joint C3 systems that can function on a moment's notice anywhere in the world.

Download or read book C2 of C3 written by William M. Guerra and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Army's ongoing acquisition of modernized Command and Control Communications (C3) Systems portends a quantum leap in present capabilities. Tremendously expensive, the effort represents a dramatic shift from past procurement policies inasmuch as it recognizes the need for a systemic, interactive C3 network that will not only support the Army's Air Land Battle doctrine, but also the C3 needs of Joint and/or Combined operations. While the acquisition effort is laudable, the author perceives a weakness in the Army's ability to adequately manage these new-found resources. Simply put, the capabilities and complexity of existing and soon-to-be fielded systems outstrip the antiquated management techniques used for controlling these vital resources. In order to meet this challenge the author offers a conceptual approach for harnessing our C3 systems. Key to this approach is the need to accurately recognize the problem. In order to function properly, the new systems must be engineered and installed to meet very precise and exacting requirements--a need exacerbated by the trend towards increased interconnectivity and interdependence of disparate systems. The answer, therefore, lies in management systems which acknowledge and address this critical need.

This book was released on 1980 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The logical structure of a new comprehensive C3 system model which is independent of national origin and tactical situation and which forms the basis for development of a computer simulation for analysis of C3 systems performance is introduced. Three classes of C3 MOEs which when taken together completely describe all the critical elements of C3 system's performance are also introduced. One of these MOE classes (ie, the MU class) includes most of the MOEs which have been proposed and utilized previously. In addition, two other classes are proposed which include a measure of the effects of information consistency (ie, the ALPHA-BETA class) as well as a completely new class of MOEs describing the knowledge differences between the elements of a force and between two opposing forces (ie, the DELTA-K class). Each of these classes of MOEs has both local and global interpretations which permit the evaluation of the component parts of a C3 system as well as of the performance of the C3 system as a whole.

Download or read book Command and Control Communications C3 in Northern Operations written by Stanley L. Evans and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A commander must have the means to control his forces. This is a fact that is understood, but is not easily accomplished. In northern operations, command and control communications is often more difficult to install and maintain than in other areas. Operations in vast, sparsely populated areas with extreme climatic and terrain conditions make the development of a command and control communications network a detailed task. This paper presents some of the factors that must be taken into consideration in system planning. A discussion of the capabilities of different types of communications components lead to the conclusion that radio is the most functional means for operations in a northern theater. However, multichannel radio systems in northern operations must be able to span great distances and operate in extreme conditions. The command and control network should not be limited to doctrinal communications because that limits flexibility in a region that requires flexibility. Examples of the use of commercial communications to extend and provide robustness to the military networks are reviewed to demonstrate the additional capability that they can provide. Automated command and control networks are also examined. Lessons that must be learned in training and equipment preparation round out the paper. The conclusion reached is that once attention is given to the special factors in planning northern operations, and soldiers are trained and prepared for deployment and employment in the northern environment, command and control communications can be as effective in this region as any other.

Download or read book Planning and Architectural Design of Modern Command Control Communications and Information Systems written by A. Nejat Ince and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of this book is Command Control Communication and Information 3 (C I) which is the management infrastructure for any large or complex dynamic resource systems. Here command means the determination of what to do, and control means the ongoing managementofthe execution ofa command. 3 Decision making is the essence of C I which is accomplished through a phased implementation of a set of facilities, communications, personnel, equipment and procedures for monitoring, forecasting, planning, directing, allocating resources, and generating options to achieve specific and general objectives. 3 The C I system that is in question here is for a strategic military command including its subordinate commands. Although the design methodology that will be expounded in the book is for a military system, it can, to a large extent, apply also to tactical military as well as to civilian management information systems (MIS). 3 A C I system is a decision making network that reflects a hierarchical organization 3 of C I nodes. Each node is responsible for the management of some portion ofthe available resources, where the higher level nodes are responsible for a 3 correspondingly greater portion of the resources. Within a C I system both command and control decision making occur at every level of the hierarchy. Command decisions at one level determine how to satisfy the management decisions at a higher level.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proposal's original goal included an investigation of a novel, asynchronous, decentralized approach to military command, control, and communications. Our accomplishments have been substantial and are stated subsequently. The communications and military C3 community and we, the researchers, gratefully acknowledge the support and encouragement of the BMDO/IST (formerly SDIO/IST) office and the US Army Research Office. We have successfully modeled and simulated complex, broadband-ISDN networks on a network of workstations, configured as a loosely-coupled parallel processor. We have also succeeded in pioneering the concept and design of a dynamic and distributed self-healing algorithm to achieve robustness and high fault tolerance in network management. Our pioneering study of fuzzy thresholding has led to a profound result in network buffer design. Fuzzy queue management adapts superbly to sharp changes in cell arrival rates and maximum burstiness of bursty traffic sources, yielding lower cell discard rates, high throughput of cells through the network, and lower cell-blocking rates. In the world of military command and control that dates back thousands of years, centralized C3 has been the dominant rule. Except for General Patton in World War II and a few reports in Operations Just Cause and Desert Storm, most military leaders practiced synchronized C3. Our research is possibly the first to formally characterize and study the concept of decentralized command and control through accurate battlefield simulation on parallel processors, for realistic battlefield scenarios. Performance results indicate that the decentralized C3 algorithm achieves faster reaction times to new and dynamic information.
