ICCRTS “ Operationalizing C 2 Agility ”

چکیده
Alberts has offered a definition of agility and its constituent components. This paper describes where in the C2 system, or the force, the different agility requirements will have to be met, and how to measure if they are. The purpose of a C2 system is to achieve focus and convergence of some entities (the force) somewhere (the context) to accomplish something (the task or mission), together (maybe with other organizations), within a certain amount of time. These factors determine the demands on a C2 system. Rasmussen’s abstraction hierarchy is used as the analytical framework, with the functions performed by C2 as defined by Brehmer. The paper discusses how to define the demands, i.e. the requisite agility, and how to assess if these demands can be met (potential agility), or have been met (manifest agility). The information requirements of a C2 system are determined by what is required of the commanded force for it to be agile in the present circumstances. The model traces the paths from the demands on the system to the parts of the system that are supposed to meet them, and makes possible the assessment of the manifest, and potential, agility of a C2 system.

"Operationalizing C2 Agility" is the process of moving from a conceptual model or theory of C2 Agility to applying this theory to improve an entity’s C2 Agility in practice. This process is greatly facilitated if one builds a proper foundation. In this paper, we begin by identifying the critical elements or cornerstones of such a foundation and the role they play in enabling an entity to system...

Modern military operations are characterized by highly dynamic environments, complex strategic, operational, and tactical situations, a rich and evolving mix of allies and adversaries, inherent and sometimes massive uncertainty, and high risk. This combination of factors requires that military forces must continually transform and adjust to remain highly effective in extremely fluid environment...
