NATO Core Services Profiling for Hybrid Tactical Networks

Abstract

NATO IST-150 "NATO Core Services profiling for Hybrid Tactical Networks" is the third in a series of research task groups targeting Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) in the tactical domain. The first group, IST-090, identified challenges, followed by IST-118, where we identified which services and functions must be supported at the tactical level. Finally, in IST-150, we have concentrated on one enabling function, that of the Message-Oriented Middleware (MOM) Core Service. Federated Mission Networking (FMN) is the main context and motivation for our work, in that current FMN spirals thus far have not been focusing on the tactical level. The work performed by IST-150 is intended to provide knowledge about services at the tactical level, and possibly feed into future spirals of FMN targeting the tactical level specifically. MOM can be subdivided in two main communication paradigms: Publish/subscribe communication and request/response communication. In IST-150, we have performed experiments on actual and emulated tactical networks.
