Command and Control Common Semantic Core Required to Enable Net-centric Operations

Abstract

Commanders and decision makers require timely and accurate information. The power of information and information sharing are fundamental tenets of the ongoing defense transformation. Making information discoverable, accessible, and understandable are critical to achieving net-centric capability. Of these, the most difficult to accomplish is the requirement to make shared information "understandable". This paper discusses enabling shared understanding in the joint and multinational operational context and recommends leveraging the ongoing work of the Multilateral Interoperability Programme (MIP). It also looks at cost and performance factors.
