Theme: Collective C2 in Multinational Civil-Military Operations
The theme for the 16th International Command and Control Research and Technology Symposium is “Collective C2 in Multinational Civil-Military Operations.” Since the first ICCRTS in 1995, extensive changes have occurred in the international environment, in the nature of threats to national security, in the missions undertaken to protect our security, in the technologies available to support our endeavors, and in the ways the functions associated with command and control are carried out. This year’s symposium will explore the C2-related responses to these changes and challenges.
