Integration Strategy for PROGNOS Knowledge Exchange Module Interfaces (ISP-KEMI)

 

WELCOME:

    This is the website for the Integration Strategy for PROGNOS Knowledge Exchange Module Interfaces (ISP-KEMI) project that was completed for the Spring 2010 SYST 798/OR 680 at George Mason University. 

PROGNOS:

     PROGNOS is a predictive naval situation awareness system that will support decision makers by  providing actionable and decision relevant information. It is also a project currently led by George Mason University’s C4I Center for the U.S. Navy to improve situation awareness for the U.S. Navy and to provide predictive analysis “with principled hypothesis management.” PROGNOS consists of five essential modules responsible for different system functionalities and providing different capabilities: Reasoning, Knowledge Management, Knowledge Storage, Knowledge Exchange, and Simulation.   

Problem Statement: 

    A systems engineering approaches is needed to integrate PROGNOS with FORCEnet systems due to interface with multiple Naval platforms and C2 and ISR systems and to interoperate with multiple systems each with different formats and standards.

Problem Objectives:

    The ISP-KEMI project is to provide an approach that will integrate PROGNOS with FORCEnet and to define external interfaces for the PROGNOS Knowledge Exchange Module.

Project Sponsor:
