Abstract
The concept of accessing a data base and EDP equipment
located ashore from ships at sea is presented as a complete
system entitled Remote Interrogation Information Exchange
System (RIIXS). The system contains the following elements:
a data base located ashore; an input/output terminal located
aboard ship; and a digital data link, provided by FLTSATCOM,
connecting the two. RIIXS is designed to supply the fleet
commander with operational information vital to command and
control in addition to providing command mobility and rapid
command assumption. RIIXS is evaluated on the following
criteria: reliability; survivability; maintainability;
personnel manning; data transmission rates; dollar cost
resource allocation; and contribution to command and
control. RIIXS is shown to be vastly superior to a similar
system located aboard ship.
