Functional Specifications for Selected Staff Workstations Within the Close CombatTest Bed's Automated Battalion Tactical Operations Center

摘要

This report contains functional specifications for simulating an AutomatedBattalion Tactical Operations Center (BN TOC) within the Close Combat Test Bed (CCTB). These specifications are an important step in simulating new systems and technologies. The simulation allows researchers at the U.S. Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences (ARI) to address training and soldier performance issues related to command, control, and communications (C ) during the early stages of systems development. The Automated BN TOC consists of S2 (Intelligence), S3 (Operations), and BN Executive Officer workstations to support mission planning and execution. Descriptions of these staff support functions provide background information to those interested in the functional and operational details of this BN TOC. Information contained in this report will assist in determining requirements for C3 systems and training development programs for military personnel.
