Autonomous Organization-Based Adaptive Information Systems

Abstract

On the field of battle, a continual flow of information is necessary to achieve information superiority. The required information potentially originates from numerous information producers. Unfortunately, due to dynamic and often dangerous conditions, these information producers can be incapacitated or destroyed. To be successful, a battlefield information system must provide a continuous flow of information and thus adaptability and fault tolerance are key features. In this paper, the authors show how they build adaptive and fault tolerance information systems using an organizational model. They introduce their organizational model and provide details pertaining to its use in the development of a battlefield information system.
