Copernicus ... Forward C41 for the 21st Century

Abstract

This article discusses the Navy's development of the C4I system "Copernicus". The Navy's goal is to make Copernicus the pillar for Naval C4I responsive to warfighers; to field these systems quickly; to capitalize on advances in technology; and to shape Naval doctrine to reflect these changes. Designed as a user-centered C4I architecture it provided a blueprint for capturing technological change. It answered critical C4I problems and articulated the essence of modern command and control.
