Terra Harvest Open Architecture Standard for Unattended Systems.

摘要

Realizing adaptive and efficient use of unattended assets within a dynamic, low-bandwidth, intermittently connected network typical of a tactical environment is a challenging problem. Assets are any sensors or platforms that can be tasked and/or reconfigured to produce a data payload, which is then disseminated over a communications channel. Discovery of assets, moving payloads from assets through gateways, and archiving, processing, and harvesting payloads for remote analysis are key capabilities of a foundation for an adaptive architecture. Such an architecture enables setting in motion payloads that can be used both locally and globally when they come to rest within a domain-specific data store. This report describes the Terra Harvest high-level architecture components for acquiring, persisting, processing, and disseminating information from unattended assets to produce mission-specific behaviors and information.
