摘要

To support the global C41 missions of the future, with their emphasis on rapid deployment, reach back, timely response and multiple mission capability, requires a seamless information environment from the sensors to the execution elements. The goal is to provide the right information, at the right time and the right place. Physically this will be implemented as a collection of interconnected information processing centers, each supporting a specific portion of the mission (e.g. planning, logistics, intelligence, monitoring, assessment, etc.). These centers will be functionally integrated to provide the perception of a single, uniform, information environment, which provides to all of the users a common, consistent and current view of needed information, even though the users and the information sources may all be physically dispersed around the globe.
