Intelligence Preparation of the Battlefield (Automated IPB(A). Phase II. Software Functional Description.

Abstract

This software functional description contains performance requirements and functional descriptions of the application and system software required to support automated Intelligence Preparation of the Battlefield (IPB(A)) functions in an All Source Analysis System (ASAS), as currently defined by USAICS. The ASAS is a land-mobile, tactical ingelligence processing center planned for Army deployment during the mid to late 1980's. The functional descriptions were developed for the Battlefield Systems Integration Directorate of USA DARCOM and are based on experience gained in the development and demonstration of laboratory capabilities during the IPB(A) Phase II period concluded in January 1980. The functions are described in terms such that there is no dependency on specific commercial hardware or software. (Author)
