an information fusion demonstrator for Tactical Intelligence processing in network based defense
Information Fusion, 2007Co-Authors: Simon Ahlberg, Pontus Horling, Katarina Johansson, Karsten Jored, Hedvig Kjellstrom, Christian Martenson, Goran Neider, Johan Schubert, Pontus Svenson, Per SvenssonAbstract:The Swedish Defence Research Agency (FOI) has developed a concept demonstrator called the Information Fusion Demonstrator 2003 (IFD03) for demonstrating information fusion methodology suitable for a future Network Based Defense (NBD) C4ISR system. The focus of the demonstrator is on real-time Tactical Intelligence processing at the division level in a ground warfare scenario. The demonstrator integrates novel force aggregation, particle filtering, and sensor allocation methods to create, dynamically update, and maintain components of a Tactical situation picture. This is achieved by fusing physically modelled and numerically simulated sensor reports from several different sensor types with realistic a priori information sampled from both a high-resolution terrain model and an enemy organizational and behavioral model. This represents a key step toward the goal of creating in real time a dynamic, high fidelity representation of a moving battalion-sized organization, based on sensor data as well as a priori Intelligence and terrain information, employing fusion, tracking, aggregation, and resource allocation methods all built on well-founded theories of uncertainty. The motives behind this project, the fusion methods developed for the system, as well as its scenario model and simulator architecture are described. The main services of the demonstrator are discussed and early experience from using the system is shared.

Weaving Codes/Coding Weaves: Penelopean Mêtis and the Weaver-Coder’s Kairos
TEXTILE, 2017Co-Authors: Emma CockerAbstract:AbstractDrawing on her experience as “critical interlocutor” within the research project Weaving Codes/Coding Weaves, in this article Emma Cocker reflects on the human qualities of attention, cognitive agility and Tactical Intelligence activated within live coding and ancient weaving with reference to the Ancient Greek concepts of technē, kairos and metis. The article explores how the specificity of “thinking-in-action” cultivated within improvisatory live coding relates to the embodied “thought-in-motion” activated whilst working on the loom. Echoing the wider concerns of Weaving Codes/Coding Weaves, an attempt is made to redefine the relation between weave and code by dislodging the dominant utilitarian histories that connect computer and the loom, instead placing emphasis on the potentially resistant and subversive forms of live thinking-and-knowing cultivated within live coding and ancient weaving. Cocker addresses the Penelopean poetics of both practices, proposing how the combination of kairotic tim...

Live coding/weaving - Penelopean mêtis and the weaver/coder’s kairos
2015Co-Authors: Emma CockerAbstract:Drawing on my experience as a critical interlocutor within the Weaving Codes, Coding Weaves project (2014—2016, http://kairotic.org/), in this paper I propose potential points of connection between Ancient weaving and live coding, considering both practices through the prism of the Ancient Greek concept of technē, a species of Tactical knowledge combining the principles of metis (cunning Intelligence) and Kairos (opportune timing). Specifically, this enquiry addresses the human qualities of attention, cognitive agility and Tactical Intelligence activated within both live coding and live weaving, arguing that such practices might have potential as ‘practices of the self’, as a means for cultivating a more critical mode of human agency and subjectivity.

“TAP‐IN” to strategic and Tactical Intelligence in the sales and marketing functions
Competitive Intelligence Review, 2000Co-Authors: Cynthia E. Miree, John E PrescottAbstract:This article describes the results of a benchmarking study of mechanisms used in corporate CI operations to coordinate strategic and Tactical Intelligence for sales and marketing. The American Productivity and Quality Center (APQC) sponsored the study, for which the authors served as subject-matter experts. The objective was to identify a set of mechanisms that establish a conceptual and operational integration of strategic and Tactical Intelligence. In-depth case studies of five best-practice companies (Amoco, Boehringer Ingelheim, Dow Chemical, Met Life, and SBC), supplemented with quantitative surveys from an additional nine firms, provided the study data. The findings show that best-practice firms use a set of five coordinating mechanisms that the authors label TAP-IN™: (1) Teams, (2) CI human-resource job design and Allocation, (3) the Planning process, (4) Interaction (dialogue), and (5) human Intelligence Networks. The use of these five mechanisms in tandem provides a sophisticated means of coordinating strategic and Tactical Intelligence in the sales and marketing functions and throughout the firm. All of the companies in the sample used the TAP-IN mechanisms to some degree. The data reveal a relationship between the number of mechanisms used by a company and the overall effectiveness of the coordination process. For instance, Dow Chemical and Amoco used all five mechanisms. These two companies also reported they were able to achieve coordination between strategic and Tactical Intelligence to a very high degree. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Common integrated broadcast service-modules (CIBS-M) to expand the joint Tactical terminal (JTT) family
MILCOM 1999. IEEE Military Communications. Conference Proceedings (Cat. No.99CH36341), 1999Co-Authors: L.t.c. Kostek, E. FrankeAbstract:As one of the key performance parameters (KPPs), the joint Tactical terminal (JTT) program was required to be constructed with common integrated broadcast Service-Modules (CIBS-M), which were used to complete a family of terminals in alternate configurations. Successful actualization of terminals for the airborne and man-portable domains completes this family of Tactical Intelligence terminals using CIBS-M hardware and software modules. By establishing a common software baseline. Pre-planned product improvements (P3I) and operation and sustainment (O&S) costs are minimized over the entire family and life of the terminals.

Architectural considerations for a family of multi-functional Tactical Intelligence terminals
IEEE Military Communications Conference. Proceedings. MILCOM 98 (Cat. No.98CH36201), 1998Co-Authors: E. FrankeAbstract:Warfighters across the military operations continuum require timely and accurate information to successfully execute their missions. They employ Intelligence data in direct support of command and control, weapons and sensors. As Tactical Intelligence terminals migrate toward a multi-band, multi-channel and multi-mission architecture, a dilemma exists when trying to satisfy jointly the conflicting Intelligence broadcast needs of the small, highly-mobile, Tactical user and the needs of the large, mobile or fixed command center. Each user has distinct, differing, mission and platform constraints. Offering the same weight, cost, size, transmit/receive channel functionality, and COTS/NDI solution for both cases is not the optimum solution for either. The highly-mobile Tactical user requires a compact, environmentally robust terminal containing embedded message processing, sized sufficiently to his needs, but not so large as to meet the intensive filtering information needs of the command post. The command post, on the other hand, requires environmental robustness only on the military-specific portion of the terminal, i.e. the RF and INFOSEC segments. Computative-intense message processing is best handled in the inhabited cabin or below deck of the command post, where the operator workstation uses evolutionary COTS upgrades. Each of the Intelligence terminal interfaces (mission, platform, RF band, correlation, filtering, and formatting, TDP, environmental, and power source) is examined to show that there is a natural division between the two user-types. Unity is best achieved by the use of use of a common set of modules populated in different terminals.

Instantiation of the TADIL-A waveform into a software programmable Tactical Intelligence terminal
MILCOM 1999. IEEE Military Communications. Conference Proceedings (Cat. No.99CH36341), 1Co-Authors: E. FrankeAbstract:The Tactical digital information link-A (TADIL-A) is used for situational awareness dissemination to the warfighter at both HF and UHF. With the addition of TADIL-A to the joint Tactical terminal (JTT) operational requirements document (ORD), it served as a test for demonstrating the ability to instantiate a legacy broadcast waveform into a software re-programmable, digital Tactical Intelligence terminal. Software resident in a field-proven TADIL-A data terminal set (DTS) was re-written in higher order language to provide operation for both HF and UHF.
