Modeling Situation awareness (SA) in NCO/NCW environments is inherently challenging due to the complexity of the underlying network, highly dynamic nature of processes, and the need for real time analysis. In this paper, we present a performance model for SA using the Network Centric Operations Performance & Prediction (NCO-PP) framework, an established framework for analyzing and predicting pe...

A methodology for combining multi-parametric programming and NCO tracking is presented in the case of linear dynamic systems. The resulting parametric controllers consist of (potentially nonlinear) feedback laws for tracking optimality conditions by exploiting the underlying optimal control switching structure. Compared to the classical multi-parametric MPC controller, this approach leads to a ...

1.1 Rationale Realizing the power of Network Centric Operations (NCO) depends directly not only on implementing weapon platform sophistication and lethality advances but also on how efficiently and effectively Units of Action (UofA) exploit information advantage to drive positive battlespace outcomes. We define information advantage following Driscoll and Henderson [1]: given existing intellige...

The photodissociation dynamics of NCO have been examined using fast beam photofragment translational spectroscopy. Excitation of the 10 , 30 , and 10 30 2 transitions of the B̃ 2P←X̃ P band produces N(S)1CO photofragments exclusively, while excitation of the 10 30 3 transition yields primarily N(D)1CO photoproducts. The translational energy @P(ET)# distributions yield D0~N–CO!52.3460.03 eV, and D...

This paper explores the convergence of Machine-to-Machine (M2M) networks with Network-Centric Operations (NCO). An overview of the M2M communication paradigm and current standardization efforts regarding architecture are given. It includes an overview of the network-centric networking and analyses the idea of implementing NCO approach to achieve situational awareness and self-synchronization of...

Transformation dictates that the nature of future warfare will be network-centric where netcentricity is contingent on a ubiquitous network. At issue are the capabilities that this network must have to make network-centric operations (NCO) possible. Wireline and commercial wireless technologies have colored the expectations of what is possible and, in many cases, the requirements for the networ...
