Facilitator Alice Mulvehill (BBN)
Outline

• Working Group Name Doctrine/LL
• Purpose
• Significant Issues
• Recommendations/Plan of Action

2
Some Common Goals

• Use DAML to support user groups
• Operations Decision support
• Training
• Doctrine Both producers and consumers
• User Processes
• Information (doctrine/lessons) access
• Auto-generation of valid/reliable structured
  information
• Just-in-time information delivery (post
  approval/verification)
• Across all levels (strategic, operational,
  tactical)
• Tailored granularity (concept, task, mission)
• Usable format
• Constraints
• Portable Does not require net connection
• Tools must be easy to use, inexpensive to acquire

3
Significant Issues/Needs

• Process
• Tools for searching and inferencing with DAML
  ontologies
• for context-sensitive search for given documents
• for document revision and change tracking
• for speeding up the markup process
• Meta-tag generation
• Identifying users granularity need (e.g.,
  paragraph vs. task)
• Approval of DAML links in doctrine generation
• Bandwidth of existing info infrastructure
  systems, search implications
• Performance Tasks
• Representations for situation collection
• Verification and editing
• Trend analysis (e.g., from lessons, commonalities
  among METLs)
• Comparative evaluations (e.g., search using DAML
  markup vs. not)

• Product
• Provide portable/local search (e.g., not
  connected to SIPRNET)
• Agent-based tools for exploiting DAMLized
  LL/doctrine
• Meta-tag use

Questions

1. Can PDF files (or their indices) be DAMLized
   (i.e., is HTML needed)?

• 2. Any existing dataspace visualization tools for
  viewing DAML links?
• If so, what are their existing capabilities?
