Army’s data analysis software, NORTHCOM Software, has been designed for a variety of users. This paper takes a look at the software’s capabilities and limitations, and identifies key areas in need of improvement.
There are various reasons why Northcom Software has been designed. The first is, of course, the need to ensure the accuracy of intelligence and data, as well as the integrity of the data itself. The second is to ensure that this data can move forward to the decision making bodies and the commanders that need it. The third is to ensure that intelligence and data produced by Northcom Software can be kept secure in storage.
This paper looks at all three of those reasons. Before diving into the details of how and why we are doing this, we need to give a brief history of how NORTHCOM Software was started.
The earliest version of Northcom Software used to be called DataWar. This data war software was developed by The General Dynamics Corporation (GD) back in the late 1980’s. Originally, the program was only intended for use by allied armies, but then as more intelligence and data were found it became very helpful in planning and executing military operations. By 1990, however, GD decided to rebrand the program and to officially make Northcom Software available to other armies.
Because of the rebranding, many different users started using Northcom Software. At one point it was used by all major NATO coalition forces (NATO: Allied, Coalition, Coalition-Permanent) and the U. Army still use this software today.
Northcom Software’s next version was called U-COM. This version of Northcom Software was developed by Sandia National Laboratories (a division of Lockheed Martin) and it was also used by the U. This version was used until around 2004.
Currently, NORTHCOM Software is being used by a wide variety of nations. There are many different countries and armies in the world, and Northcom Software is used by a large number of them. The most notable users are the armies that are part of NATO, the U. Army, and the Royal Netherlands, the Netherlands Armed Forces.

General Glen VanHerck of the Air Force at NORTHCOM, November 2, 1995. VanHerck, Air Chief of Staff, U. Air Force, Washington, DC. The North’s Air Force’s future in the cyber age: Air Chief of Staff Gen. VanHerck and “cyber” forces.
GENERAL GLEN VANHERK, AIR Chief of Staff, U. Air Force, Washington, DC. It is no secret that the United States leads the world in its ability to develop cyber weapons. The fact that we have developed new technologies to enable an ever-increasing number of us to attack others in cyberspace is well known. In a sense, cyberspace is a new domain for the United States Air Force. It is an area, however, that does not yet have a military. The Air Force believes that the Air Force’s role in that area needs to be changed. The Air Force now believes that the Air Force will have a major cyber responsibility in the future, and will be involved in developing new capabilities and new systems.
This week I received a teleconference message from the Air Chief of Staff, General VanHerck, who is overseeing the organization of the Air Force’s cyber mission in the future. I was privileged to be on the Air Force’s cyber team as it is in the early stages of development. The Air Chief was able to call me after hours, or even through the weekend. We discussed the cyber mission and the Air Force’s development of new capabilities, including a new program of the Defense Department, the Defense Advanced Research Project Activity (DARPA). We talked about the Air Force’s view of the future in the cyber domain and how we are developing the future and how we will be involved in the future. This conversation took place just after one of the most recent and major cyber-attacks on United States military and economic facilities and our financial institutions. The United States has been attacked and our financial institutions and military installations have been targeted, but we are taking steps now to reduce the risk from being attacked again, whether by cyber attack or by conventional means.

Fielding the bicycle while we ride it.
Bicycle, like the rest of these articles in this series, is a very broad topic with a very wide range of applications. For example, many applications of bicycles require that the bicycle is mounted on a surface. If the bicycle is not mounted on something, it is not a bicycle.
A Bicycle is a vehicle that a human being can ride on or control and that has been designed to carry passengers or cargo. Bikes are usually wheeled vehicles.
To be a bicycle, a bicycle must be constructed and used for transportation purposes, not amusement, sport or recreation.
Bicycle Type Bicycles are powered by human pedaling effort, not energy from the environment. Many bicycles are powered at the wheels.
Bicycles use a power source other than the human rider in most cases; that is, the bicycle is not powered solely by an internal combustion engine, electric motor, or other power source.
Bicycles are powered by the efforts of the rider and not by the rider’s direct efforts or energy generation from the environment.
Bicycles are steered by a human operator with the controls of the bicycle steering the bicycle from a standstill.
Bicycles are not controlled solely by the rider’s efforts.
Cycling a bicycle is controlled by the human operator and not by a machine. The rider has control, but the machine still has control.
A bicycle is controlled by the human operator. The machine does not have control.
A bicycle rides on a track, in a street, on a public road, etc. And, as a bicycle, each bicycle must have a seat.
Bicycle Type Bicycles operate on the road. They move on the road or off the road, in a lane, over the sidewalk, in the street, etc.
A bicycle is powered by the human rider. A bicycle is not a machine. A bicycle is not energy that can be used to operate a machine.
Bicycles are controlled by the human operator and not by a machine or by an internal combustion engine.
