The Knowledge Wall for the Global 2000 War Game: Design Solutions to Match JOC User Requirements

Abstract

A wall-sized, shared display, or 'Knowledge Wall', fusing all information relevant to mission status, has been proposed as a tool to support shared situation awareness and decision-making in the Joint Operation Center (JOC). A Knowledge Wall is being implemented on-board the USS Coronado (AGF 11) and at the Naval War College (NWC) for the Global 2000 War Game. What features and content should this new display possess? This report presents a Knowledge Wall design capable of meeting these requirements and elaborates its design features from the 'ground-up'. The advantages and disadvantages of the proposed design solutions are discussed. The proposed design is compared and contrasted to those for other wall-sized displays that are being prototyped for other military command centers and for non-military applications.
