Open Framework Planner with Embedded Training

The objective of this research is to further the design of an open, modular framework for a defense planner such that a training system can be embedded in it, allowing for underlying components to be rapidly inserted (e.g. mapping engines and visualization tools). The proposed effort enhances the micro-services architecture, provides micro-services models and tools, enhances algorithms, and provides Artificial Intelligence capabilities. The research investigates and demonstrates the feasibility and utility of building an integrated command and control (C2) planning and training system. While this effort is intended to focus on missile defense C2, the system will be designed and developed with the intent of expanding to address integrated air and missile defense.
