Network Centric Warfare Baseline Architecture 2004 Methodology Brief Defence Network Centric Warfare Symposium November 2004

Scope Hybrid view modified from the USMC EF Aligned to the DIE Framework Draws on the NCW Roadmap Platform-centric view Static architecture description Reflect as-is capability for 2004 Based on a Regional Aggression Scenario Developed in MS Office (Excel) Three weeks of Development One week of validation Limited access to SME in timeframe

Approach Does not follow the ‘purist’ EA development approach Represents a hybrid view of selected DAF products OV 1 Concept Graphic OV2 Node Connectivity Diagram OV3 Information Exchange Requirements (Banded) OV4 Command Relationship Chart OV5 Activity Description (NCW Aspirational) SV2 Systems Communication Description Gives the ‘customer’ what is needed for the NCW Project Office Workshops

NCW Aspirational Roles FA FP C2 FD IS FG NMO Force Application Command and Control Force Protection Force Deployment Force Generation and Sustainment Information Superiority and Support Non-Military Operations
