Summary
The Military Communications Network Management system was a technical demonstration presented to the Australian Defence Force as part of the C4 EDGE Program.
The main focus of the program was to demonstrate that a National approach to Australian Sovereign Communications (via a distributed Software Defined Battlefield Communications Network Architecture) can be achieved through a team of Australian businesses working together.
As part of the Fifty Zoo design team, and in conjunction with a defence industry systems integrator, I was engaged to research and develop the user experience of the system.
Working with members of C4 Edge that had Army communications experience, we undertook research to understand how Signals officers plan, prepare and execute tactical operations - and designed an interface to create, manage and monitor a comms network in a tactical environment.
