AN APPROACH TO DATA PROCESSING IN OPERATIONS COMMAND CENTERS.
Abstract
The pursuit and attainment of our national objectives is largely supported by the capabilities of the Armed Forces. The ability to deter aggression, defend national sovereignty and maintain the position as a world leader depends upon proper decision making in the Command and Control system from the level of the President to the lowest echelon tactical commander. Automated data processing has been chosen as a method to assist the commander in a position of Command and Control to make his decisions. Underlying concepts of the Navy sponsored automated data processing system are described. The history and fundamental basic development of the system are presented to logically unite the fields of military professionalism and computer technology. (Author)
