About the Book:NCW101: An Introduction to Network Centric Warfare was produced to provide a broad and deep, yet accessible and affordable introductory text covering the fundamental ideas and technologies underpinning military networking. The intent of the text is to provide an objective view of military networking, devoid of the strong views often found in publications by advocates or detractors of NCW. Unlike other recent texts dealing with NCW, this work also covers key supporting technologies, information warfare impacts on networked systems, and many of the human factors problems arising in networked systems.This book is a compilation of all twenty parts of the NCW101 series, and nine related technical essays, all of which were published in Strike Publications’ Defence Today journal between 2003 and 2008, and one research paper dealing with quantitative capability modeling of networked military systems. The NCW101 series was produced with the intent of providing an accessible series of technical primers or tutorials for beginners in this area, the scope covering the whole gamut of digital networks, datalinks and communications technologies, the digitised Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance sensors feeding the network, and the full spectrum of Information Warfare applied against the sensor, network and operator. Most of this material was written at an undergraduate level, with a qualitative rather than quantitative focus to maximize its accessibility and footprint. The book is suitable as an introductory text for both undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as military staff college courses. This text includes an extensive bibliography of related reference materials, intended to provide both professional readers and students of military networking with an accessible list of reading material. |

About the Author:Dr Carlo Kopp has been
designing, developing, constructing, testing and researching digital
networks since 1985. He developed a number of proprietary network
protocols during his industry career, as well as integrated protocols
on the SunOS 4.1/BSD operating system, and proprietary embedded
platforms, and performed performance modelling and measurement of
packet networks. His PhD topic, submitted in 1999, covered the
adaptation of X/Ku-band Active Electronically Steered Array (AESA)
radar antennas for high data rate networking, microwave tropospheric
propagation problems at shallow slant angles, and wide area networking
behaviour in airborne networks.
Since 2000 Kopp has been actively researching networking problems at Monash University, and was cofounder of the Ad Hoc Networking Research team at the Monash University Department of Computer Science. This group has performed basic and applied research covering urban/suburban area ad hoc wireless networking, ad hoc networking protocols, network security, microwave propagation in urban and tropospheric environments, support protocols for GPS, and "smart networks" capable of understanding the local propagation environment. Recent research publications of note include co-authorship of Chapter 5, covering multimode AESA fighter radars, in the Third Edition of Merrill Skolnik's Radar Handbook, which is the global standard radar engineering reference text, and co-authorship of the Internet Draft entitled The Lightweight Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Support Protocol (LGSP). Dr Kopp has been a defence analyst since 1980, providing him with a unique perspective on military networking. |
