Abstract:
Expert systems that evaluate new Command and Control (C2) technologies are necessary to determine their adequacy for Network Centric Operations (NCO) missions. New technologies for complex C2 NCO scenarios are currently being developed. However, little has been done to evaluate these new technologies for specific sets of mission requirements. There is neither a standard methodology to evaluate these new technologies, nor a research environment to test these technologies under realistic assumptions. This paper will introduce an expert system that will help decision makers evaluate these technologies and determine whether they can transition into practical applications for the Navy, and under which limitations.
