An Examination of Communications Efficiency in the Dispersed Division Tactical Operations Center.

Abstract

This investigation determined the effects dispersing the division tactical operations center has on message processing time and radio telephone operator usage. The impact on dispersal distance and communications hardware are studied. The analysis was accomplished by modeling division tactical operations center operations using SLAM, a special purpose simulation language, with FORTRAN inserts. The results of the study regarding the impact of dispersion was compared to similarly generated results of the present consolidated division tactical operations center. (Author)
