Abstract
Network Centric Warfare (NCW) is the new buzz phrase in the defence community.
The U.S. in particular is spending billions of dollars to transform its
military forces into strong, highly mobile networked units. Other countries
throughout the world, including France, the U.K., Germany and Australia, are
adopting similar doctrines of Network Based Operations (NBO) to update and
transform their forces. Key to this doctrine are defence communications and
information technology, which provide the infrastructure that make such
networking possible.
Because of the tremendous size and complexity of this undertaking, however,
there is increased potential for problems with speed, bandwidth, security and
network organisation. Defence, I.T. and communications companies are working
together to oversome these obstacles, and those that are successful could
potentially see an enormous increase in revenue. This latest visiongain report
will help you to confidently decide the right strategy for your company in
this dynamic market.
