Net-centric Characteristics

Transcription

1 Net-centric Characteristics Heterogeneous Variety is essential and inevitable basis for healthy evolutionary growth and survival within dynamic threat environment Parallel Multiple implementation and concurrent use of components and processes increases speed and provides fail-over capability Market-driven Emphasizes Market principles vice top down direction to optimize Survival of the fit (v. selection of the fittest from a single perspective) Developers experiment early and often to find the right niche Agile and adaptable Capable of rapid reconfiguration to meet new and unanticipated requirements or circumvent disruption Expedient task-oriented collaborations vice static bureaucracy

2 The Solution: A Layered Architecture for DoD s Future Standards Maturity Comms: IPv4 -> IPv6 Applications, Storage, ESM, IA, User Assistance: Posix, Linux (Platform APIs) -> Open Grid Services Directory, Discovery, Mediation, Messaging, Collaboration (Video, Audio, Data): APIs.-> Web Services Standards-Based Service Definitions: - Network Address(es) - Payload Information (Data & Service) - Descriptor Attributes (e.g. Service Quality, Security, Version #) COI Capability (e.g. NMCI) COI Capability (e.g. DJC2) 3 CES Information Services Enterprise/Service/Agency Supplied CES Operating Environment Enterprise/Service/Agency Supplied Transformational Communications Enterprise/Service/Agency Supplied 2 1

13 Illustrative Results Increased combat reach in selected scenarios: 40% more TAMD kills 50% reduction in number of leakers 100% increase in engagement envelope Up to ten-fold increase in overland percent area protected Most significant benefits realized when ALL combat reach capabilities implemented

14 Technical Challenges: A PARTIAL List How Does One Document the Architecture of the Internet? What does System Architecture Mean in a Net-centric Environment? Identity Management & Access Controls Evolving Standards & Hard Integration Points Heterogeneity and Interoperability Implications Coalition and HLS Information Sharing Need to Share Vice Need to Know Risk Management Operational Testing, Certification, Accreditation (of what and how?) Cultural Market-Driven Model Vice Policy Mandates Leverage Community Intellectual Property Common Approaches and Methods Common Vocabulary
