Strategies For Defining the Army's Objective Vision Of Command and Control for the 21st Century (1995) By Edison M. Cesar
 
The uncertainty in the changing world situation and the diversity of crisis situations U.S. forces may face in the future reinforce the need for force commanders at all levels to be better able to command and control their forces, particularly at the operational and tactical levels. By being able to execute command and control C2 rapidly, effectively, and continuously, forces may be able to quell disturbances in early stages and perhaps limit the need for larger forces or for longer operations. With improved C2 as a goal, this document presents the results of a concept formulation study that took an initial look at the command and control on the move C2OTM situation as a whole, postulated a set of operational objectives derived from experiences in Operation Desert Storm ODS and from observations based on past RAND research in the area, and reviewed the Army's current and evolving C2 subarchitecture1 against these objectives. The document also suggests some elements that can help any C2 sub-architecture better meet the postulated operational objectives.
