Control of Agent Based Systems C2 Grid Networked Shooters Engagement Grid Sensor Grid Networked Sensors Agents roam warfare grids From Concept THE COABS GRID • COTS-based Software Infrastructure that • Facilitates interoperability of diverse, heterogeneous systems (Demoed FY00) • Enables dynamic connection of disparate information sources and C2 applications (tested in Navy experiments) • Provides dynamic discovery of service-based capabilities (coalition air campaign planning demo - DARPA/DERA) • Visit http://coabs.globalinfotek.com/ for further information To Product
Sample of Military Grid Transitions • Navy Warfare Development Command • In the lab (Spawar Systems Center Info Ops Center of Future), Expeditionary Sensor Grid (ESG) Enabling Experiments (EEE) • At sea (Fleet Battle Experiments - Delta through Juliet) • Air Force Research Lab • Joint Battlespace Infosphere (yJBI implementation/fuselet project using Publish and Subscribe) • Effects Based Operations ATD (Grid used as architectural alternative) • Integrated Flight Management ATD (Use of Grid to approach various Air Mobility Command problems) • Army CECOM • Maneuver Control System-light Grid agents • Agile Commander and Log C2 ATDs - Plan execution monitoring and course of action analysis, • Agile Commander and Log C2 ATDs – CHAIN (Composable Hierarchical Agents for Intelligent Notification), grid security, and other service enhancements • Dismounted Warrior C4I STO (Science and Technology Objective) – alerting on situational awareness
Grid Military Users Group • CoABS about to enter it’s 5th Year. Beginning of FY 02 started GMUG • Purpose • Bring together the forward thinkers of the Military Services that are taking advantage of the CoABS Grid • Expose one-another to early adoption uses of CoABS Grid • Explore additional opportunities among the participant potential transition organizations (CECOM, NWDC/SPAWAR, and AFRL attending) • Explore potential for “Quick and Dirty” Joint Demonstration (Gen Myers briefing follow-up)
GMUG Progress/Plans • Met first in May at GITI • Overview of activities of Navy, Air Force and Army Efforts using Grid • Call for Joint Demo • Agenda for ongoing GMUG • Met again July 12 at SSC • Follow-up and Propose Joint Grid-based Integrated Targeting demonstration • Next meeting (late Fall/Winter) will be based on Lessons Learned • Potentially will combine with Semantic Web Military Users Group
