Joint Doctrine Ontology Project
Background of this project
This project is carried out under two Rome Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) initiatives MAMA" and "Living Plan".The project is directed by Barry Smith.
Publication
Peter Morosoff, Ron Rudnicki, Jason Bryant, Robert Farrell, Barry Smith, “Joint Doctrine Ontology: A Benchmark for Military Information Systems Interoperability”, Semantic Technology for Intelligence, Defense and Security (STIDS), CEUR, 2015
Goal
The goal of this project is to create a formal representation of the content of (selected parts of) Doctrine.
Examples of potential uses
1. to doctrine authors:
- - enabling the creation of flexible visualizations of how different parts of doctrine interact, or of doctrinal content relevant to particular types of operations or capabilities
- - allowing a tracing of dependences between definitions that can help to ensure that changes in definitions cascade appropriately through all dependent definitions when revisions are made
2. to doctrine users:
- - enabling more effective discovery of doctrinal knowledge in forms useful for computational reasoning
- - providing for each term in the DoD Dictionary its own web page, serving as a repository of usage and of revision history,
3. in the form of new uses for the content of doctrine
- - allowing the DoD Dictionary to serve as entry point for web-based searches across multiple repositories of authoritative data
- - facilitating greater coordination of training and operations particularly as these involve IT systems working alongside human beings
- - increasing automation of processes such as plan specification, ops assessment, BlueForce Status, and scenario development
- - allowing new sorts of assessment processes, for example based on measures of adherence to doctrine, processes which may in turn give rise to new ways of computationally identifying areas where changes in doctrine may be needed
4. to facilitate communication
- - for example between intelligence analysts and the warfighters who are users of intelligence data
The Joint Doctrine Ontology will provide a new source of ground truth for ontologists across DoD and IC that will help to identify gaps and errors in existing military ontologies. It will thereby support consistent agile ontology development of a sort that will counteract current tendencies towards silo-formation and failure of interoperation.
Work plan
The project will begin with a small number of modules focusing on:
- 1. Capstone (Task, Function and Mission) (JP 1)
- 2. Planning (JP 5-0)
- 3. Civil Operations (JP 3-57)
- 4. Space Operations (JP 3-14)
- 5. Air Mobility Operations (JP 3-17)
- TBD: Operational Environment
- TBD: Transport (4-01)
- TBD: Sustainment
Initially we are focusing on
- A. review of existing definitions to identify taxonomic relations.
- B. exploring the role of Joint Doctrine and more specific doctrinal publications (for example the relation between the Joint Dictionary (JP 1-02) and the Army Doctrine Reference Publication 1-02, or between Joint Planning and Airforce Planning ([1])
Issues to be addressed:
- Relation to existing efforts, especially:
- The role of ontology fragments to be reused in different areas of doctrine, for example pertaining to PMESII-PT
