| | Integrated Marine Multi Agent Command & Control System |
| | (IMMACCS) |
| | Primary Purpose | IMMACCS is an experimental, object-oriented |
| | architecture that provides a common tactical |
| | picture and tactical decision aid for the Marine |
| | Commander in the Experimental Combat Operations |
| | Center (ECOC). It is the core of the Capable |
| | Warrior C4I decision-support system, providing |
| | 'near' real-time situation awareness (i.e., |
| | updated several times per second) at all C2 |
| | access nodes. |
| | Sub-Functions | Unit locations, decision support functions, |
| | limited 3-D fly through, news group system |
| | (Netscape Navigator Message), data base "reach |
| | back." |
| | Equipment Requirements | Currently the core system runs on Sun Ultra |
| | II/Windows NT Java. MCWL experimenting with |
| | other platforms. |
| | Connectivity Requirements | Requires access to a LAN on which core system is |
| | attached. The LAN is not part of the system. |
| | Crypto Requirements | None. |
| | Normal Locations | Core system to be used in Capable Warrior |
| | Advanced Warfighting Experiment ECOC with access |
| | down to the squad/team level via laptops and |
| | Personal Digital Assistants (PDA). |
| | Information Managed | Uses "Object-oriented" technology to manage all |
| | objects/entities in the battle space. |
| | Products Created | Generates a common tactical picture (CTP). |
| | Decision support tools are embedded in CTP. |
| | Lead Service/Contractor | USMC/California Polytechnic Institute CAD |
| | Research Center, San Luis Obispo, CA. |
| | Current Fielding Status | Currently not fielded. Will be tested at Capable |
| | Warrior. Future fielding is in question. |
| | Known Problems |
| | DIICOE Compliance Rating | Level 6 with waivers. |
