-- 7 Achieving savings by minimizing duplication of effort and obtaining more effective use of common-user and shared resources 8 Providing information privacy security and protection against unauthorized access use abuse alteration destruction or denial consistent with Federal and Department of Defense directives b Principle The following seven basic tenets were used to establish the foundation upon which the Joint Staff AIS Strategic Plan is built AISSP 1 Planning Real productivity comes from understanding functional requirements and applying appropriate automation enhancements to streamline work processes This requires periodic analysis of functions and processes to tap the full potential of evolving automation technology Automation is a tool which should be implemented to improve productivity and enhance mission accomplishment within the existing Joint Staff functional and organizational structure Automation should not be used to artificially drive structural change 2 Communication and Coordination Users must identify automation requirements and assist in the design implementation and cost determination of systems because they have the best understanding of their functional requirements and work processes This will require that users be briefed periodically on the benefits of evolving technology in order to fully exploit automation in the Joint Staff The focus of automated information system development in the Joint Staff must be on users and life-cycle costs if productivity is to be enhanced The process must ensure that they are the principle players in requirements identification not just incidental participants - 3 Alternative Development and Selection Selection of hardware and software capabilities should be based upon user identified requirements and accommodated by the Joint Staff information system architecture The Joint Staff information systems architecture should be 4 16 December 1988 AISSP 'v structured in such a manner that it is flexible enough to incorporate the hardware and software needed to meet all current and future requirements Projects should be phased in to allow the benefits to be measured and to provide necessary progression time for hardware and software baselining and orderly configuration management 4 Benefits Measurement Doing things faster is a change but not necessarily a benefit Prototypes are essential for assessing technology updates The decision to implement wide scale technology upgrades should be based upon identified requirements life-cycle cost the benefits of timeliness product suitability environmental impact and effectiveness not just procurement cost or funds availability 5 Training Automated information systems are the key productivity tools of the staff newly assigned personnel must be efficiently brought into the organizational culture 6 Security Joint Staff automated information systems will fully comply with the Joint Staff ADP security program under development Additionally - specific security procedures will be documented in -operating instructions for all systems to ensure that national security information is protected IAW E O 12356 and Joint Staff directives 7 Access The connectivity that the Joint Staff information system architecture will provide within the Joint Staff with other components and Executive Branch agencies requires addressal of the issue of access to automated information systems and data bases Cognizant system and data base managers will positively control access using protocols and passwords The access approval process will be automated when software is developed which can' discriminate among users requesters and provide access to only those data bases or data elements whithin data bases that the particular user requester has authority to view Process procedures for gaining access will be documented in operating instructions for each automated information system to ensure that JCS Joint Staff directives JCS MOP 39 etc controlling access to sensitive predecisional information and strategic and operational planning information are complied with 5 16 December 1988 c Key Support Areas The following key areas have been identified as needing support to fulfill the Joint Staff's goals and-objectives and to meet the above requirements AISSP 1 Standard Joint Staff Data Bases and Applications Standard applications must allow all users access to a broad range of information processing capabilities in a networked environment Data bases supporting the standard applications must be accessible in various modes to authorized users General requirements include standard programming languages structured query language report generation interactive online file transfer read write access protection multiple levels of computer access control multilevel security down-line loading of data base subsets Specific support requirements include action tracking document search and retrieval personnel security 2 Intelligent Workstations Standalone information processing capability must be available at each 'workstation This processing capability is in addition to network access to standard word processing data bases and other applications For identified users this capability must include but not be limited to electronic spreadsheet graphics processing and specialized statistical or mathematical packages - Requirements include standalone capability as well as the ability to interface with a variety of Joint Staff and systems standalone unclassified telecommunications support for a wide range of communications protocols support of shared logic standalone word processing graphic and data management statistical processing software 3 Classified Information Processing Due to the nature of the physical environment within the Joint Staff and the type of data being processed systems must support information processing to a level of TOP SECRET Requirements include fully integrated system allowing mission mission support and administrative data to reside together in a TOP SECRET system high environment and eventual multilevel secure operations 4 Creation and Distribution An integrated method of document and information creation and distribution must allow the electronic transmission of documents between individuals and offices within the Joint Staff A method for transmitting formal signed documents is also needed The ability to use this system to electronically transmit correspondence 6 16 December 1988 AISSP tasking and-internal coordination should result in significant improvements in productivity efficiency and accountability Requirements include transfer of information from any user to any other user on the network ability to compose send reply forward file delete and acknowledge ability to electronically post information documents at a central location for as-required access by users 5 Inter-Office Message Distribution In addition to the features provided for document information creation and distribution there is a need for electronic verification and accounting of AUTODIN message traffic entering or leaving the Joint Staff through the Joint Chiefs of Staff Information Service Center Requirements include automatic routing'of incoming text and data message traffic to message addressee multi-drop addressing receipt confirmation priority scheduling ability to compose edit validate and send outgoing text and data traffic 6 Image Processing and Briefing Aids Integrated software on the network or on the standalone workstations must'allow identified users a full range of graphics capabilities such as pie charts line graphs bar charts and a map capability Requirements include conversion of hard copy to digital form for use in data entry classified facsimile signature on electronic documents integration of selected data from various data bases and ability to output results in the form of overhead slides or projections 7 Electronic Stora and Retrieval of Documents Systems must provide a standard capability to store and retrieve all types of documents used within the Joint Staff This system will support an automated micrographics storage retrieval capability providing rapid access to large amounts of data on a variety of search criteria Requirements include key word and string search multiple document indices generated from title page or table of contents large volume privacy and security accountability access control hardcopy and longeterm microform text storage 8 Voice Mail and Messaging A voice mail and messaging capability with store and forward features is required by a number of executive users This system should serve as an alternative to the current telephone system in administrative matters Requirements include standard electronic mail with voice feature 7 16 December 1988 for senior leadership ability for system user to leave -message visual signal that mail is awaiting and or has been received addressable to office-and or individual 9 Video Conferencing - Video conferencing is also required by a number of executive users Individual conference terminals should be augmented by a shared-use conference facility which is compatible with similar facilities in industry and Government 10 Archiving of Office-Level Documents A capability to electronically archive and manipulate office level documents is required by several directorates Documents must be processed as images and or ASCII files and be immediately available to action officers through search and retrieval software Also included within the office-level document archiving must be distributed access to corporate-level documents and intra office access of archived documents 11 Integrated Graphics and Publishing An electronic publishing capability is required by identified users to integrate text graphics and scanned images in an -electronic paste-up format for the purpose of producing proof ready published text and graphics products Companion to the electronic publishing capability is tthe requirement for a full color paint software application with supporting hardware to satisfy the grOwing need for color briefing presentations Also a computer aided design CAD system with the means of performing facilities management functions such as space management and use and architectural engineering drawings is required 12 Continuit of erations Plannin Critical data needed for continued operations of the Joint Staff must be identified and protected as required by the Continuity of Operations Plan for the Joint Chiefs of Staff SM-769-85 The COOP needs to be supported by contingency plans for each of the major automated information systems named in this strategic plan 3 JOINT STAFF STANDARDS Setting standards for satisfying similar requirements within an organization usually produces several cost saving and productivity improving benefits while assuring sources of supply and future connectivity Standards can be set either through adherance to an internal standard or through adoption of an externally accepted standard 802 3 The focus of Joint Staff-accepted standards has changed within the past year from proprietary AISSP 8 16 December 1988 m systems to more of a government wide and industry standard externally accepted Following is a list of the standards in data communications applications and hardware and software interfaces which will form the uacornerstones of future Joint Staff AISs a Data Communications 1 Government Open System Interconnection Profile GOSIP The GOSIP standard provides the opportunity for and the means of achieving interoperability within multi-vendor networks The GOSIP will allow a government procurement agency to tell vendors what protocols are required to satisfy an agency's needs for interoperable data communications It will make the Government compatible with other systems world-wide not just within the U S The GOSIP will define protocols in all seven layers of the 081 model New protocol development in such areas as forms exchange office document exchange graphics and security is taking place and protocols will be added to the GOSIP as they become well defined Implementation of this standard however must not interfere with the overall security of the system The standard is required before true interoperability up through the application layer can be achieved The GOSIP Federal Information ProceSsing Standard FIPS 146 was released in August v1988 and becomes effective in Feb 1989 The GOSIP is optional until August 1990 Therefore interim standards leading to the GOSIP standard must be adopted 2 Interim Standard -- Trans ort Control Protocol Internet Protocol TCP IP Until the GOSIP standard is adopted and commercially available together with Simple Mail Transfer Protocol SMTP TELNET and File Transfer Protocol FTP and 802 3 will provide systems with the functionality to meet networking requirements Figure 1 depicts the GOSIP standard and the Joint Staff's interim approach for preparing an orderly conversion to the standard b Applications 1 Structured Query Language SQL -

cbntinued effectiveness This JRP will have a direct and profound impact on the ability of the analytical staffs - to conduct meaningful analyses of war plans resultant campaigns and war fighting requirements The task results from the MAPP Terms of Reference SM-463-85 MAPP also supports and ultimately JOPES once it is operational by providing capabilities that help satisfy the simulation and analysis requirements of these systems Continued funding of this JRP is essential to support this vital and innovative JCS initiative and thereby capitalize on the capabilities acquired to date Before MAPP the CINCs had virtually no analytical capabilities to devote to the planning process and there was no focal point for the articulation of such needs General Vessey as CJCS recognized this unsatisfactory treatment of a critical issue and mandated a program to correct this deficiency General Vessey saw the ever increasing sophistication of computational devices and their application to analyses however the CINCs had neither the skilled personnel nor the tools to exploit analysis techniques in the context of the planning process Due to General Vessey s vision a unique program was conceived developed and the early stages of its application reached Throughout this period the JCS and the CINCs have expended considerable effort and funds in order to create the initial MAPP capability in existence today populated analytical cells with the rudimentary facilities hardware and software needed to begin meaningful analyses The program is just entering the application phase and its tools are starting to contribute to actual analyses in support of the planning processes The capabilities so carefully constructed over the past four years while remarkable compared to the era still require considerable improvement to provide the minimal capability necessary to properly support the planning processes Without adequate funding the current models will remain in their prototype stages and will not address the essential issues in the required manner Hardware will become increasingly outdated and eventually unusable New tools will not be added to the program and the CINCs will be forced to resort to ineffective manual procedures or somehow adapt inappropriate models with the attendant risks of either duplication or omission Crucial user support training and communications between users will not be provided and the ongoing analysis efforts of the CINCs will become fragmented resulting in inefficient utilization of remaining resources Research into' new methodologies will be curtailed and the central theme of the program state-of-the-art capabilities will cease to exist Development of data bases and vital interfaces to the planning systems will be suspended leaving the remaining capabilities useless due to lack of timely and accurate data This dynamic and successful program is just beginning to show AISSP 3-34 15 December 1988 results and given the proper resources the future is very promising MAPP is the only source of the needed joint - analysis capabilities available to the CINCs as they alone do not possess the requisite resources needed to develop these unique items Unless the program is adequately resourced during the 1990-1994 time frame the CINCs will not be able to capitalize on the resources and effort expended to date their existing capabilities will atrophy and the program will not be able to provide intended capabilities The result will be a return to the situation whereby complex decisions that directly influence operational success will be based on back of the envelope analyses or no analyses at all the tremendous analytical power afforded by state-of-the-art computational devices will be lost to the CINCs and the investment of previous years negated SUBELEMENTS MAPP Program Management MAPP CINC Support MAPP Support Task MAPP Computer Operations Support MAPP CINC Computer Procurement State of the Art Contingency Analysis SOTACA Model Development -
