This work presents some initial steps in the development of a decentralized network centric multiple frame assignment (MFA) class of architecture algorithms that affordably preserves the quality of a centralized architecture across a network of platforms while managing communication loading and achieving a consistent air picture on entities of interest for each platform. In particular, this work discussed four architectures, namely, Centralized, Network MFA Centralized, Network MFA on Local Data and Network Tracks, and Network MFA on All Data and Network Tracks and the results of extensive computations with the architectures.
