Command and Control (C2 , C4I, BMC3IS ) is largest HPCC Opportunity in DoD |
It is Dual-Use to the NII and Large Scale Database Decision Support Applications which will dominate the civilian use of HPCC |
This Dual-Use approach to Command and Control demands the Global Grid Concept at the low (hardware) level |
There will not be a separate DII (Defense Information Infrastructure) just as there is not a separate Interstate Highway System for DoD Vehicles |
Even if you built the DII, the commercial GII will always have much higher bandwidth and so one would want to use it |
