The authors have developed a mathematical framework to aid these efforts. Additional work, such as data fitting, experimentation, linking decisions and actions, historical analysis, and gaming will further advance knowledge in this area.Command and control systemsUnited StatesInformation warfareUnited StatesCommand and control systemsInformation warfare355.3/3041/0973Perry Walt L904735Signori David1942-987401Boon John1959-987402United States.Department of Defense.Office of the Secretary of Defense.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910219963503321Exploring information superiority2256754UNINA
