Computer Communications and Dissemination of ASWEP Products to the Fleet Now and in the Future,

Abstract

The advantages of computer communications are presented, indicating the speeds, accuracy, reliability, flexibility and capacity of these systems. Examples of size and types of communication computers are given and their cost effectiveness estimated. Details are given of various modes of operations, such as data collection, their analysis and computation of derived products, computer-to-computer dissemination of gross products, further tailoring for users' need and distribution to users. The possibilities and needs for direct computerized communications between the ships and shore computer facilities are emphasized, utilizing communication satellites. The flexibilities and properties of such communications are indicated and the use of the proposed system in ASW and other naval operations is outlined. (Author)
