Course of Events

• Part 1 Agadez submarine attack - agents alert
  appropriate HQs.
• Part 2 Casualty data collected by agents and
  used to effect timely medevac.

Agent Benefits

• Support achievement of 'command agility' for NCW.
• Aids construction of Coalition command systems.
• Provides interoperability between legacy /
  previously incompatible systems.
• Policies facilitate selective sharing of
  information and control of appropriate agent
  behavior - leading to an assured and secure
  environment.
• Ease of composition and dynamic reconfiguration
  lead to adaptive responses to unexpected events.
• Non-monolithic - efficient, effective and less
  brittle.
