What is C4ISR

• C4ISR is an aggregation of diverse command and control, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance elements that provide military information to a Commander and, when brought together with appropriate communication and computer networks, may be thought of as a virtual, enabling capability for military operations.’ – Clark and Moon

Definition• C4ISR is defined in the Joint Technical Architecture (JTA; Defense

Information Systems Agency, 1999) as those systems that

* support properly designated commanders in the exercise of authority and direction over assigned and attached forces across the range of military operations;

* collect, process, integrate, analyze, evaluate, or interpret available information concerning foreign countries or areas;

* systematically observe aerospace, surface or subsurface areas, places, persons, or things by visual, aural, electronic, photographic, or other means; and

* obtain, by visual observation or other detection methods, information about the activities and resources of an enemy or potential enemy, or secure data concerning the meteorological, hydrographic, or geographic characteristics of a particular area.

Value of C4ISR

• Most advanced weapon is useless if employed against wrong target or at wrong time

• Move to net-centric warfare driven by warfighter

• Enabler of efficient and effective operations

• Relevant, timely, accurate information for decision making

Digital Value Chain Proposition

•Xxx.ip Geo.xxx

•Cpu centric Storage centric

•“unwired” Connected

•Wiki’s , blogs, search, social networks

•Visualization and Information economies

•Bio-inspire and gaming

• Synthesis of data, knowledge and information to bring out new insights and understanding

• Contextual, relevant, actionable. Tacit versus explicit.

• Organized or processed data

• Collection of facts

C4ISR as an Enabler

MDA/MIO Example

• Assigned to do MDA watch• Log into portal, select MDA tab• Brings up map with AIS data• Automated workflow process runs a series of agents

– Maritime motion model agent runs to filter out tracks behaving as expected– Agent looks for inconsistencies in AIS data– (more agents)– Agent helps operator assign tasking to resources to get look at platforms of

interest

12

Take Advantage of the Web• Billions of $$$ of R&D each year

– Hard technology - search engines, visualization, mashups, …– Soft technology - social engineering, user generated content,

people networks, …

• These are the capabilities younger generation expect to have at work

• Creating Collaborative environments, Becoming Knowledge Brokers

Web 2.0 in a C4ISR context

Accuracy Timeliness

Shift Away from Kinetic Operations

• US embracing “waging peace”, growing influence of information operations

• Issues:– Increased use of Unmanned

Systems

– Importance of understanding networks (social, economic, etc.)

– Reliance on reach back for distributed C4ISR

– How do you measure effectiveness? Interoperability?
