Battlefield Awareness and Data Dissemination Intelligent Information Dissemination Server

摘要

This report describe the research performed to design and develop software tools to facilitate the dissemination of battlefield data based on the Warfighter's needs and the ever changing world environment. The technology was conducted in collaboration with other researchers working on the DARPA/ISO Battlefield Awareness and Data Dissemination (BADD) initiative. This effort focused on capturing the Warfighter's information needs models, software that instantiates those information needs models with world information, and fundamental investigations into query merging. The prototype system augments the BADD Intelligent Data manger by improving both the accuracy and timeliness of smart information push delivering just the right data, to just the right place, at just the right time.
