A Network-Enabled Information System

A Network-Enabled Information System

A network-enabled information system is a complex system based on internet technologies and information management, which is expected to help deliver the strength of synchronized operational systems. They are essential to winning informationized warfare.

In his report to the 19th CPC National Congress, Xi Jinping called for improving the military’s joint operations capabilities and its ability to operate in different domains by strengthening network-enabled information systems. Efforts to strengthen network-enabled information systems should be geared toward joint operations. They should enable connected operational elements, shared information, integrated functions and coordinated actions, and reconfigure command systems, force structure, armaments, and logistics services. These efforts help strengthen the capabilities to deter, to fight and to prevail in informationized wars. 

网络信息体系

网络信息体系是以网络中心、信息主导、体系支撑为主要特征的复杂巨系统，是信息化作战体系的基本形态，是打赢信息化战争的基础支撑。2017年10月18日，习近平在中国共产党第十九次全国代表大会的报告中提出，提高基于网络信息体系的联合作战能力、全域作战能力。网络信息体系建设，面向联合作战要求，实现要素基于网络互联，信息基于网络共享，功能基于网络融合，行动基于网络协同，牵引重塑指挥体系、力量体系、装备体系和保障体系，大力提升威慑和实战能力，为建设信息化军队、打赢信息化战争提供强有力支撑。
