Abstract:

The Net-Centric Operating Environment NCOE Joint Integration Concept JIC study focused on Joint Task Force operations with the context of a Major Combat Operation. It defined three interrelated capability areas -- 1 knowledge management, 2 network management, and 3 information assurance -- and three enabling constructs -- 1 information transport, 2 enterprised services, and 3 applications. The Capabilities-Based Assessment CBA, the Thin Thread Analysis, by MITRE focuses on activities, informationdata, operational entities and communities of interest COI. The objective of the Thin Thread project was to create an architecture-based process as a tool to support capabilities-based planning, assessment and acquisitions.
