The Deputy Secretary of Defense, in an effort to accelerate the development of Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) integration and architecture efforts in the Department of Defense, directed that a DoD-wide Integration Task Force (ITF) be created. He designated Assistant Secretary of Defense (C3I) to sponsor, organize and manage this effort. The Defense Science Board (DSB) was requested then to establish a Task Force on C4ISR Integration to assist this internal DoD process by providing: * Advice to the ITF chairman on all aspects of C4ISR integration. * Separate reports of its judgments on these matters to the Department The Terms of Reference for this Task Force are attached as Appendix A and the list of members as Appendix B. The DSB Task Force met four times with the leaders of the ITF. During each meeting, the ITF leaders described the process, organization and results of the ITF efforts to date. Based on these interactions, the DSB Task Force formulated a set of inputs for consideration by the ITF. Two letter reports were submitted by the DSB Task Force during the course of its deliberations.
