FORCEnet Net Centric Architecture - A Standards View

Abstract

As the operational construct and architectural framework for naval warfare, FORCEnet is the Navy and Marine Corps initiative to achieve Netcentric Warfare (NCW) and Joint Transformation by providing robust information sharing and collaboration across the naval force. FORCEnet is defined as the operational construct and architectural framework for naval warfare in the information age that integrates warriors, sensors, networks, command and control, platforms, and weapons into a networked, distributed combat force that is scalable across all levels of conflict from seabed to space and sea and land. The FORCEnet enterprise architecture provides the naval Netcentric framework. Part of the architecture is a list of standards to provide the entire Naval community with a source of standards to ensure Naval, joint, and allied coalition interoperability in support of the netcentric objective. The information technology standards to implement a Netcentric capability are a key element to build the FORCEnet capability. The main focus of this paper will be the technical standards.
