The Impact of SOA Policy-Based Computing on C2 Interoperation and Computing
Raymond A. Paul, Wei‐Tek Tsai, Jay S. Bayne · 2005
DoD is moving into GIG-based service-oriented network-centric policy-based enterprise computing. Specifically, network-centric operation means that each C2 system must be network ready, and must be able to interconnect and interoperate with other C2 systems. This paper presents issues related to policy-based computing in a service-oriented architecture (SOA) for network-centric warfare. Service-oriented computing and its associated architecture represent a new paradigm of computing and numerous issues need to be addressed. One of important issues is distributed policy computing. Issues such as policy specification, analysis, enforcement, synchronization, and communication are all related.
