Comparative Study of Network-Centric Approach for Management of Complex Systems.

This paper discusses the application of the Network-centric Operations (NCO) approach in the context of crisis management and disaster recovery. The study identifies some shortcomings of the traditional approach to crisis resolution and identifies areas in which NCO could bring advantage and enable faster and more accurate response to potential threats. The authors also propose a technical implementation based on the Data Distribution Service (DDS) standard, which allows for fast development of network-centric applications which can provide the required real-time information exchange needed for the implementation of the NCO approach in the crisis management framework.
