 | As the Army continues its movement toward NetCentricity, the need for face-to-face collaboration remains. Although commanders will eventually have the ability to utilize large bandwidth pipes and robust software services to collaborate remotely, there is no indication commanders will loose their desire to conduct localized planning sessions eyeball-to-eyeball. However, little is currently being done to provide computer assistance for in-person collaboration. This paper advanced user interface discusses the use of ... |

 | Data sharing and collaboration are vital to the successful implementation of network-centric warfare. This paper discusses a novel approach to data sharing and collaboration based on sharing data objects instead of just sharing the data itself. Sharing objects permits not only data sharing, but also the sharing of the methods required to interpret the data. The net result is a shared object framework that enables multiple clients to create data ... |

 | In this paper we describe the design, implementation, and execution results obtained from the SINCE experiment 2b (SINCEx2b) which took place 17-28 July, 2006 at the Fort Dix facility of the NJ Army National Guard. The objective of SINCE is to conduct R&D experimentation in support of net-centric battle command interoperability and collaboration. The primary approach of this experiment is to build upon the success of the previous SINCE experiments ... |

 | The Army Future Force (FF), including Units of Employment (UE) and subordinate Units of Action (UA) equipped with Future Combat Systems (FCS) and manned by Future Force Warriors (FFW), is distinguished from legacy and interim force units and systems by its exceptional responsiveness, deployability, agility, versatility, lethality, survivability and sustainability. These characteristics are meaningful individually but are not completely independent of each other. To support such characteristics, the Future Force ... |

|
 | Autonomous agents are a value-added technology to facilitate integrating logistics into the in-theater maneuver planning processes. Conventionally, logistics impacts that can affect the successful prosecution of a maneuver plan are only analyzed or discovered after the maneuver course of action (COA) has been finalized. Logistic oversights, assumptions, or faulty assessments can lead to an unsupportable maneuver plan that must be re-planned or thrown away; a situation that may require unafforded ... |

 | Battle Command on the Move (BCOTM) is a revolutionary capability that provides current and future combined arms commanders all of the information resident in their command posts, and the required communications necessary to command and control their combined arms team on the move, or at a short halt, from any vantage point on the joint battlefield. The purpose of the BCOTM effort was to convert five M-7 Bradley Fire Support ... |

|
 | Future deployments of Objective Force units are required to be not only network-centric with respect to their own assets but also with respect to other Joint, National and Coalition assets. The main issue for any network-centric architecture is how to establish connectivity, federation, collaboration and interoperability in a self organizing way among all elements of the force to include combat, combat support, combat service support and C2 assets. When a ... |

 | Just the recognition that 'knowledge is power' is not sufficient to utilize available information and transform this information into the powerful asset we call "knowledge." With a continuous increase in the complexity and tempo on the modern battlefield; new demands are placed on rapid and precise information dissemination. The volume of information available to the user becomes larger while the time necessary to correctly interpret and understand this information becomes ... |
