Temporal monitoring of plans in Command and Control (C2): Application to Combat Search and Rescue

Abstract

Planning missions is one of the most important tasks in Command and Control (C2) domain. Many efforts have been devoted to improve the planning process in order to deal with new constraints such as planning in a multi-user, multi-perspective, distributed and network-enabled environment. Unfortunately, less effort has been devoted to monitor the execution of plans in-progress. In this work, we propose a new technique to monitor temporally constrained tasks part of a plan that must be executed by different partners in a network-enabled environment.
