Combat Systems Vision 2030 Combat System Architecture: Design Principles and Methodology

Abstract

In this report, combat system architecture is defined, and a reference model is formulated for the operating tasks performed by combat systems. Factors driving the influence of architecture design on the military worth of surface combatants are discussed, and an associated set of design principles is provided. These are presented in the form of a building code or general design rules. The rule base is then used to trace key decisions in development of the 'H' or Vision Architecture concept. Finally, a parallel derivation is given for the Vision Architecture that is based on methods for synthesis of decentralized control structures. Combat Systems Vision 2030,
