C3 Balance and Operational Art.

Abstract

This paper considers Operational art within the larger context of 'all art,' as defined by Aristotle, in which balance is crucial to artistic expression. The paper recommends ways of employing the C3 system to balance creativity and constraint in pursuit of Operational art. The focus is on employing Expert Systems as information buffers as a means of adjusting information flow in advanced C3 systems to that level which best serves the commander's needs under the given circumstances.
