A Study of Operationally Relevant C2 Knowledge Management

Abstract

This project evaluated a cognitive theory-based conceptual and technical framework for real time information fusion and knowledge management in support of command and control (c2). The intent of this framework is to handle, swiftly and efficiently, the scope and scale of information that characterizes contemporary military C2 environments. The empirical phase of the project was designed to compare the performance of C2 personnel using an advanced information/knowledge management software environment to C2 personnel using a currently deployed software environment. Our goals in this project were to replicate a previous pilot experiment (in which we compared operator performance using an advanced c2 environment to their performance using a standard C2 environment) in two separate c2 domains and to decompose the partial contributions of the differentiating elements of the advanced environment.
