Human Augmentation of Reasoning Through Patterning (HARP)

Abstract

The objective for this effort was to develop effective software tools to support collaborative intelligence analysis. The development led to two separate tools, tag/Connect and Catalyst. These tools can be used separately or combined for a more expansive collaborative capability. Tag/Connect allows analysts to apply tags (keywords) to Web-based resources, and to see and leverage the tags and tagged resources of others. Catalyst is a modeling tool that can be utilized for performing risk assessment and option generation. Catalyst is flexible and can be applied to a variety of intelligence issues. Catalyst models consist of nodes of information organized into hierarchical tree structures. Nodes can contain attachments or links to tags from tag/Connect. Tag/Connect is a core service on the three Intelink networks.
