Delay Metric for Networked C2 Information System Architecture

摘要

This article put forward a delay metric using social network analysis to asses the response time from Networked C2 information system architecture level. Firstly, an OPDAR model of networked C2 information architecture was proposed. Secondly, three information flows, namely intelligence information flow, cooperation information flow and C2 information flow, were defined and analyzed. Their mathematical representations and parameters were given as well. After that, the methods for the delay of the three information flows were given to assess the delay of networked C2 information architecture. Finally, we proved the delay metric is worked well by assessing to two kinds of area joint air defense system architecture.
