Enterprise Systems Engineering Theory and Practice Volume 7: Enterprise Analysis and Assessment

Abstract

As military command and control (C2) applications evolve and become immersed within a growing net-centric operational environment, the complexity of interactions among component C2 enterprise capabilities will rapidly increase. The adoption of a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) approach to C2 development, coupled with the incremental fielding of Internet Protocol (IP) based Global Information Grid (GIG) capabilities, will serve as the principal catalysts for this scenario. As a result of the sheer number of anticipated web service interdependencies, analysis and assessment of C2 behavior at the enterprise scale will be both necessary and challenging. This paper will provide an initial discussion of the emerging need for such analysis and will suggest some important implementation concepts to be considered, each of which could significantly impact future enterprise systems engineering (ESE) processes.
