Intelligent Nodes in Knowledge Centric Warfare

Abstract

With the continuous increase in complexity and tempo on the modern battlefield, new demands are placed on information dissemination. The volume of information available to the user becomes larger while the time necessary to correctly interpret and understand this information becomes prohibitively smaller. Cognitive processing of information at the user nodes is proposed as a potential solution to this information overflow problem. These nodes we will call Intelligent Nodes [Dawidowicz, 2001]. This paper will introduce the architecture of an Intelligent Node and will demonstrate its hierarchical scalability across all echelons and Battlefield Functional Areas. This technology is directly applicable to the Objective Force and Future Combat Systems.
