Common Software

Abstract

Project 334 Common Software (CS): CS is the suite of systems through which the Army develops, integrates and tests common software products and/or components used for communication between Army Mission Command Systems and Joint and coalition Command and Control (C2) applications. The CS project provides state-of-the-art software technologies and functionality that is used by numerous Mission Command (MC) and joint systems to eliminate the need for service independent development and duplication of effort. The CS project also manages and performs technology demonstrations of emerging technologies for future use by Army C2 systems. The CS program is a cornerstone in the Army's COE modernization efforts. FY16 funding supports on-going development of common software solutions and the technical evaluation of previously developed software capabilities for integration into the computing environments of the Army Common Operating Environment (COE) architecture to include Cross Cutting Capabilities (CCC) that are also appropriate in Mounted and Mobile Computing environments. Efforts will include assessment of software maturity and readiness, development/modification of software as necessary to integrate with common computing environments, and validation. Common Software products include Data Dissemination Services (DDS) and C2 Infrastructure Virtual Machine as foundation for machine-to-machine (M2M) messaging CCC, Unit Task Organization, Universal Chat Bridge and Command and Control Registry hosted on Battle Command Common Services (BCCS) infrastructure.
