Mashup the OODA Loop

Abstract

This paper provides an overview of several Web 2.0 applications and how they can be constructed via mashups to augment current Army Command and Control (C2) processes via the Observe, Orient, Decide, and Act (OODA) Loop concept. As defined by Wikipedia, a mashup is a Website or application that combines the content from more than one source into an integrated presentation. The benefits include (1) faster correlation of current data, (2) an ability to obtain previously unavailable data, and (3) an authoring environment that encourages end users (soldiers) to develop and share applications without having to wait during the traditional lengthy software development cycle.
