A Study on a General Model of Information Fusion Networks

The goal of this paper is to find a general model of information fusion network that may prove useful in adapting information fusion to NCW (Network centric warfare) and coordinated development. Based on the OSI reference model, our study presents a layered model for information fusion that is integrated with a networkpsilas function; likewise, we describe herein its topology structure. We were able to find a no-scaling function in the information fusion network by examining its structure function. We also propose an improved Barabasi-Albert model for the information fusion network based on its strict demand for reliability and anti-attack. The results imply that the model possesses a realistic guide meaning for the design of the information fusion network. Moreover, it enables the developer to adequately utilize the existing resource.
