Naval C3 (Command-and-Control-and-Communications) Distributed Tactical Decision Making.

摘要

The objective of this to address analytical and computational issues that arise in the modeling, analysis and design of distributed tactical decision making. The research plan has been organized into two highly interrelated research areas: Distributed Tactical Decision Processes; and Distributed Organization Design. The focus of the first area is the development of methodologies, models, theories and algorithms directed toward the derivation of superior tactical decision, coordination, and communication strategies of distributed agents in fixed organizational structures. The framework for this research is normative. The focus of the second areas is the development of a quantitative methodology for the evaluation and comparison of alternative organizational structures or architectures. The organizations considered consist of human decisionmakers with bounded rationality who are supported by C3 systems. The organizations functions in a hostile environment where the tempo of operations is fast; consequently, the organization msut be able to respond to events in a timely manner. The framework for this research is descriptive.
