The Setting

• NATO Architecture Framework
• Service Oriented Architecture as methodology
• Portals like WISE
• Information Management

Our Approach
Model NAF IR
Portal Configuration
Modification
Usage
7
Core features

• NAF Editor including IR Editor following NMM
• Configuration compiler
• Bidirectional protocol cannel
• Configuration Service inside WISE
• Proof of Concept Real time Chat Service embedded
  in CP Portal structure

8
Model Editor

• Model editor based on Eclipse EMF/GMF
• NOV 2,4,5
• Transformation to NOV-3 highlighting IR,
  integrating additional requirements

NATO NAF V3

Model Editor
M. Lauck

• Complete set of views describing CONOPS and
  mission requirements
• UML diagrams compiled to configuration (XML)
  assuring interoperability by NMM

WISE Configuration Service

• Service added to WISE at ZOPE level
• Bidirectional protocol implemented
• posting configurations (XML)?
• Generic object container
• Rollback and higher command acknowledgment
• Solution independent of WISE version

14
Benefit
Clear system picture well modeled inside the IT
regulations and strategy
Top-Down Approach CONOPS towards mission
Information system tailored to mission
Real world refits Bottom-Up and is well
defined (and documented) again
NMM ensures multi level interoperability
High flexibility and ready to mission speed
15
Conclusion

• NAF and NMM have been challenged
• Prototype ready
• Suitable for complex information flows
• Information Management as force multiplier
• Troop level benefits from transparent high level
  concept
