This thesis examines afloat command control with emphasis
on the computer-Commander interface. Emphasis is placed on
command displays found in Combat Information Centers and on the
bridge. The configuration and development strategy for these
two areas on SPRUANCE class destroyers are examined in some
detail. The planned Aegis Combat System is also discussed from
the command control point of view. Several issues in afloat
command control are discussed including 1) Role of the afloat
Commander and "President-to-Foxhole" communications, 2) Location
of the afloat Commander in a crises, 3) Manual backup to
computerized command control systems, and 4) The Commander-
Computer interface.
