Information Flow Analysis of the Marine Air Command and Control System

Abstract

This analysis is based on a model of the Marine Air Command and Control System identified in the Center for Naval Analysis study 'C3 Information Flow Model'. The study was the composited result of a working conference of subject matter experts required to identify the operators, information, and communication paths used by the Marine Air Command and Control System. The model was reduced to a numeric data base from which an analysis of the model's performance as an information exchange system could be evaluated. The timeliness, accuracy, and efficiency of the information flow was then examined based on the numeric reduction of the model. Development of a Required Operational Capability and a Concept of Employment should proceed while study of the system continues to formalize the architecture required for the Marine Air Command and Control System.
