Abstract :
The C4ISR system effectiveness was respectively studied under the model of network centric warfare and platform centric warfare combining with specific operations in the paper, utilizing graph theory, information entropy, knowledge function theory and complexity theory. That how operational effectiveness is effected by information-sharing, network complexity, operation flow and other factors was studied, the mathematical model was established and simulation was realized. The conclusion was drawn that information-sharing´s active impact and network complexity´s negative impact both raise with the whole in-degree increasing.
