TECCNET: A Testbed fro Evaluating Command and Control NETworks

Abstract

TECCNET (Testbed for Evaluating Command and Control NETworks) is a small, expandable software system created to support C3 system research. It has been designed: 1) to highlight the complex interactions between the distributed command and control network elements, the information flow network and the environment within which the systems function, and 2) to support the development of an Information Intermediary between the C3 Network and the User. TECCNET is interactive and accommodates three basic user activities: definition of a model to simulated, generation of a scenario, and execution of an experiment. An initial modeling environment has been specified to simulate the management of the network. The algorithm used to demonstrate the system is one proposed by Golestaani as part of his PhD research, which treats flow control and routing together within a unified framework.
