Abstract:

Todays intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance ISR processes are largely vestiges of the industrial age and function much like an assembly line. Complex problems are broken down into discrete taskings to be collected and analyzed by separate intelligence disciplines and returned to the requestor to comprehend. This process often requires little initiative or critical thought on the part of collectors or analysts, and offers limited flexibility in mission execution.
