Performance Measurement in C2 Systems

Abstract

The continuous transformation of the US military into an integrated and a dominant "full spectrum" capability requires a comprehensive and evolutionary system model (the objective) and a prescribed set of transformation processes (the means) whose incremental results are measurable against operational requirements. Given its sheer size and complexity, this military system must be partitioned into logical and semi-independent elements. The individual and ensemble performance of system elements must be objectively measured, and characterized by specific and reusable metrics. Taken together, the system model and the classes of metrics define a performance measurement framework (PMF). This paper outlines the design of a generalized and scalable performance measurement framework for the Navy's FORCEnet environment.
