  Command and control - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Command and control functions are performed through an arrangement of personnel, equipment, communications, facilities, and procedures employed by a commander in planning, directing, coordinating, and controlling forces and operations in the accomplishment of the mission.
The term command and controll (note the double l) is sometimes employed by Internet trolls to suggest that their activities are more organized than they might appear.
Ubiquitous command and control (UC2) is a concept for the future of command and control.

 Chapter 20 Command, Control, and Communication
The key phrase in the definition of command and control is "knowledgeable exercise of authority." The commander who commands without the benefit of information pertinent to the goal or objective, increases the probability of failing to control his resources optimally.
With command and control considerations ranging from the political realm to specific military employment of force, it is unlikely that a commander will possess all of the skills and information required to singularly engage in C3.
Command and control systems are approaching the point where the more complex case may occur within the same span of time as the simplest one.

Intent is the commander's stated vision which defines the purpose of an operation and the end state with respect to the relationship among the force, the enemy, and the terrain.

 The Hindu : Indigenous air defence system to be operational next year   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
An indigenous, DRDO-developed air defence system with a centralised command, control and communication structure and linked to several mission control units throughout the country to detect all incoming missiles and enemy aircraft is expected to be operational by the end of next year.
The country would have a "distributed air defence system" as the same command control and communication system could be made applicable for aircraft also.
He said the RCI was also working on developing an advanced accurate navigation and control system and terminal guidance system with imaging seekers that would enable air and land missiles as also aircraft to carry out precision strikes.

 Cyberspace - A New Medium for Communication, Command and Control by Extremists   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
They allow the diffusion of command and control; they allow boundless new opportunities for communication, and they allow the players to target the information stores, processes and communications of their opponents.
Communication technology represents, in many respects, the "death of distance" and the national borders that once separated the attackers from their targets have ceased to exist.
While the use of ICT's to enhance command and control and enhance communication is apparent among Islamist extremists, and among the militia movement and Far Right in America, it is less so amongst Far Right and other extremists in other parts of the world.

 A2C2S Supports Troops in Iraq With Combat Command and Control
Called Army Airborne Command and Control System (A2C2S), the flying command post has logged more than two thousand hours of operating time to support combat and peacekeeping missions.
The system enables commanders and their staffs-at brigade, division and above-to maintain digital command, control and communication while moving through the battlespace at 120 nautical miles per hour.
Called "C2 on-the- move," the new capability allows commanders to go wherever they are needed, yet maintain uninterrupted command and control (C2) within the spectrum of conflict.

Dynamic exchange contracts are established between users to establish the flow of information across the command structure, by defining the type of information to be delivered and the intervals at which this is to take place.
This enables the information exchange to be limited to the minimum required to meet the operational needs, particularly important to lower command levels, and reduces the risk of information overload.

Also, there is the issue of command and control for conventional strategic forces.
The argument from European Command was that countervalue should not be changed to critical infrastructure because countervalue has an institutionalized and broadly understood meaning in the academic literature on nuclear warfare and in international security studies in general.
In the end, the commands could not agree and the term “critical infrastructure targeting” was withdrawn to end the discussion.
