Digitising command and control

de Neville Stanton

Provides a thorough analysis of the various human factors critical to command and control planning and modeling of military missions; a detailed treatment of the limits and successes of current digital planning and management systems for the battlefield. Included are goal/function analysis, situation awareness, social interactions and cognitive work analysis. This is a valuable resource for anyone engaged in analysis and subsequent (re)design of distributed socio-technical systems, in the military or civilian world. Emphasis is placed at the Brigade (Bde) and Battle Group (BG) headquarters (HQ) levels.
