The paper focuses on information dimension in the structure of Information and Communication Technology architecture and searches for better models to describe the structure of blue force information, especially from Enterprise Architecture (EA) approach. Enterprise Architecture has been developed better to communicate the complex structures of military capabilities. Major EA frameworks (TOGAF, DODAF, NAF) recognize the layer of information between business and technology. Nevertheless, in practice, the focus tends to turn more to the technology as has happened in several Command, Control, Communications, Computing, Information, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) or Enterprise Resource Management (ERM) programs. The paper develops a tool for architects to use in measuring the maturity of information management in the current military organization and in defining the possible paths of evolution in information management available for military. The outcome is a roadmap that describes the evolution of past and probable future for military information management and explains different drivers and constraints on roads. The roadmap is tested against experiences gained from several C4ISR, and ERM focused military transformations. The overall research approach is following the hypothetico-deductive model, and the roadmap part is applying the theory of evolution in sociotechnical systems. Since information is essential for cognitive level sense making, decision making, and learning, Enterprise Architects should include information maturity in their roadmaps of technical and business process development. The roadmap for military information management is to help the analysing of the current situation and provide possible paths towards future stages aligned through business, information, and technical layers.

The rapid development in the segment called IT and high technology related to access to information changes resulted in the creation of a new environment, which largely determines the basic principles and ways of carrying out activities through the most modernized armies in the world. For a long time series of constraints and difficulties did not allow achieving a kind of „information comfort" in proving a result of access to information in near real-time. In this paper the background of changes resulting from the automation of command were presented conditions and changes in the process of command, which is implemented at the tactical level as a series of activities organized in a logical system of consecutive and inter-dependent phases, stages and activities. From the viewpoint of the command in command automation conditions, particular attention was paid to those elements which in the opinion of the author will play a significant role in proving network-centric environment.

Rozwój technologii informatycznych i dostępem do informacji zaowocowały stworzeniem nowego środowiska, które determinuje podstawy i sposoby prowadzenia działań przez nowoczesne armie na świecie. Nowoczesne technologie informatyczne i dynamiczny ich rozwój nieodwracalnie zmieniły charakter procesów informacyjno-decyzyjnych i przebieg operacji militarnych. Dowodzenie stało się czynnikiem decydującym o wynikach zmagań przeciwstawnych stron. W referacie na tle przemian wynikających z automatyzacji dowodzenia zaprezentowane są uwarunkowania i przemiany w części procesu dowodzenia, który jest realizowany na poziomie taktycznym jako cykl działania zorganizowanego. Z punktu widzenia procesu dowodzenia w uwarunkowaniach automatyzacji dowodzenia szczególną uwagę zwrócono na te elementy, które w ocenie autora, odgrywać będą znaczącą rolę w dowodzeniu w środowisku sieciocentrycznym.

Technology solutions for coalition operations

As computer technology has advanced, information processing in command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems has become highly complex. The information processed by these systems is usually of a very highly sensitive nature and is entered into specific systems that are physically isolated from each other. The physical isolation of these systems makes it cumbersome to exchange information between systems. The result is inefficient sharing of sensitive information in situations where timeliness of exchange could be a life or death reality. Since the mid 1990's, increasing efforts have been placed on improving coalition operations. Many systems have been created with the goal to improve the sharing of information and collaborative planning across coalition boundaries. The usability of these systems have had mixed levels of success and improvements will always be necessary. This paper will briefly describe three advances in telecommunications technology that could be leveraged to significantly improve coalition operations. These technologies are; the session border controller (SBC), advances in pattern matching technology, and multi-protocol label switching (MPLS).
