A comprehensive discussion of operational requirements for future naval operations with sufficient detail to enable design and development of technical solutions to achieve the advanced information fusion and command and control concepts described. This book provides a unique focus on advanced approaches to Naval ISR and the critical underlying technologies to enable Distributed Maritime Operations (DMO). Also describing the approach of distributed Naval ops and role of ISR applying advanced technologies and addressing future conflict, new U.S. Naval maritime approaches, distributed Maritime Operations (DMO) and the newest U.S. Navy operational concept. This is a great resource for Naval officers in the ISR, Intelligence, Space, ASW, EW and Surface Warfare, disciplines who seek an in-depth understanding of advanced ISR operations and technologies as well as Navy and industry managers and engineers planning and developing advanced naval systems.

An introduction to data fusion which employs both new and traditional communication and information theory, pattern recognition, image understanding, estimation theory, digital signal processing and artificial intelligence.

A systems engineering-level introduction to the field of Information Warfare (IW), this text provides an overview of threats to commercial, civil and military information systems, and shows how these threats can be identified and systems protected.

This system-level resource applies knowledge management principles, practices and technologies to the intelligence domain. It describes the essential principles of intelligence, from collection, processing and analysis to dissemination, for both national intelligence and business applications.

The text explains the model-based method of intelligence analysis that represents the analyst's mental models of a subject as well as the analyst's reasoning process. It includes dynamic simulations and interactive analytic games, case studies that illustrate a wide range of intelligence problems, and a recommended curriculum for technical analysts.
