Workstation Segment Specification for the World-Wide Military Command and Control (WWMCCS) Information System (WIS)
Abstract
This paper contains the A-level specification that was included in the RFP package for a series of new World-Wide Military Command and Control System (WWMCCS) Information System (WIS) Workstations, WIS-SPEC-601. This specification has been developed to support the ongoing procurement of workstation products necessary to meet the operational needs of the WIS community. Included within the specification are two workstation configurations (Basic and Target Workstations) as well as support peripherals such as printers and displays. Basic software capabilities required to support WWMCCS host access, WIS LAN access, and provide personal computer support are also described. The intent of the WIS program is to provide an improved Command and Control (C 2) capability for use in national security decision-making, force preparation and planning, and execution of operation plans, by modernizing the WWMCCS Automated Data Processing (ADP) system primarily through the use of Proven Non-Developmental Item (NDI) hardware and software. The improvements will be directed toward providing an enhanced user interface to the WIS environment, extended growth capabilities, better response time, enhanced system reliability and survivability, as well as enhanced configuration control over the evolution of the system.
