The Future of Command and Control Systems

Abstract:

<p>The military is used to reconceptualize the way conflicts are understood. A constellation of smart devices and enabling technologies are guiding a drastic digital transformation of the future battlefield obliging a reformulation of standard procedures. In this evolving data-rich landscape, efforts are pursued to get acquainted about the implications of an emergent multi-domain dimension in the command and control systems in service. These systems provide meaningful information to a commander in the exercise and direction over assigned forces aiding sustained decision-making. The aim is to reflect which enhancements are needed to implement a smooth synchronization of available capabilities across all operational domains, to accomplish mission goals while ensuring a joint operational picture to assess the situation.</p><p>This is keynote report from the <a href="https://digilience.org/content/DIGILIENCE2019-program" target="_blank">DIGILIENCE 2019 conference program</a>, prepared for publication in the post-conference Springer volume.
