A Vision of the Future for the Air Force (and perhaps the whole DoD)

Abstract

The Air Force has enthusiastically endorsed, at its most senior levels, advanced thinking with regard to the application of information technology. Recently, the notion of a Joint Battlespace Infosphere (JBI) has emerged as an idea, extending beyond the bounds of the Air Force, which could have significant impact on both the operational procedures of the Air Force and on the technologies that support them. This paper discusses some, but not all, of the many issues that are involved in developing the JBI, and it provides a couple of pointers to research topics that would be beneficial towards furthering the JBI concept.
