The distributed command & control environment includes limited computer resources and
numerous mission critical applications competing for these scarce resources. Additionally the
stringent constraints and considerable complexity of distributed command & control systems can
create a condition that places extreme demands upon the allocated resources and invites a
potential for program errors. Consistent quality of service distribution can be a critical element in
ensuring effective overall program completion while avoiding potential errors and process failures.
The potential for errors and process failures can be understood and addressed by performing a
practical analysis of the resource deployment procedures utilized within this environment.
However, analyzing resource-based quality of service within a distributed command & control
environment is a demanding endeavor. This difficult task can be simplified by directly examining
specific quality of service actions that take place during program execution. Therefore, topragmatically isolate these actions and develop a practical quality of service behavioral model, the
research discussed in this paper has implemented an event trace approach to examine the exact
quality of service execution path during program operation.
