Abstract

The updating and upgrading of the current battle scenes is based on the design, selection process and implementation of system structures, equipment and weapons in organizations based on integrated information networks. In this research, an attempt has been made to explain the defensive layered structures of command and control systems, by expressing the weak points of these structures, to bring an effective critique to this topic, and in the following, the feasibility of replacing layered structures with modular structures, which is a new solution to increase the speed of performance and decision-making. in the processes of command and control systems based on this model, he stated. The results of this research indicate the increase of resilience as one of the most basic factors of quality measurement of command and control processes in modular structures compared to layered structures.
