Towards an Agent-based, Autonomous Tactical System for C4isr Operations
نویسنده
چکیده
Software agent involvement in combat computer systems can provide lightweight, dynamic automation to the warfighter. Current intelligence systems are limited by the abilities of the warfighters to gather, assimilate, report, and execute on intelligence. Through the research and design for the Overshadow system, we found using agents practical for automation capabilities in tactical systems where optimization of operation and human simulation are important factors. In the paper we provide an overview of the architecture and design decisions made during the Overshadow system development.

The goal of the international CoAX (Coalition Agents eXperiment) program was to demonstrate how agent systems could be used to provide agile and flexible command and control systems for coalition operations, and facilitate rapid integration of national C2 systems. The CoAX experiments modelled a coalition C4ISR system as a distributed, heterogeneous agent network using the DARPA CoABS (Control ...

The term “human terrain” was coined recently by the Army in response to critical needs for information about the individuals, groups and the workings of the society in general in Iraq. The call for help and the response to date has focused on tactical operations, but it is essential to consider the possibility that the tactical need points to a strategic issue for the C4ISR community. In this p...
متن کاملReal-Time UAV Maneuvering via Automated Planning in Simulations
The automatic generation of realistic behaviour such as tactical intercepts for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) in air combat is a challenging problem. State-of-the-art solutions propose hand– crafted algorithms and heuristics whose performance depends heavily on the initial conditions and specific aerodynamic characteristics of the UAVs involved. This demo shows the ability of domain– independe...
