ASSIGNED BOIP NUMBERS WITHIN THE M095 ICP.
4. THE TRUCKS, TRAILERS, AND GENERATORS ARE REQUIRED TO
TRANSPORT AND POWER THE WORKSTATION MODULES AND OTHER ASSO-
CIATED SUPPORT ITEMS OF EQUIPMENT (ASIOE) WHEN DEPLOYED.
B. CAPABILITIES:
1. THE PURPOSE OF ASAS IS TO FUSE INTELLIGENCE FROM
VARIOUS SOURCES TO DEVELOP THE COLLATERAL COMMON RELEVANT
ENEMY PICTURE OF THE BATTLEFIELD. EACH WORKSTATION USES
THE BASELINED ASAS BLOCK II SOFTWARE THAT PROVIDES INTE-
GRATED ALL SOURCE (AS) AND SINGLE SOURCE (SS) FUNCTIONALITY.
a. WORKSTATIONS PERFORMING AS FUNCTIONS PROVIDE A
SEMI-AUTOMATED INTELLIGENCE ANALYSIS, PRODUCTION, AND DISSEM-
INATION CAPABILITY TO THE ACE. THE AS WORKSTATION WILL HAVE
THREE HIGH-LEVEL CATEGORIES OF FUNCTIONALITY: SYSTEMS SERVICES
SUPPORT, COMMUNICATIONS SUPPORT, AND INTELLIGENCE APPLICATIONS.
THE SUPPORTING SOFTWARE WILL BE ORGANIZED INTO THREE MODULES:
SYSTEM SOFTWARE MODULE (SSM); COMMUNICATIONS SOFTWARE MODULE
(CSM); AND APPLICATIONS SOFTWARE MODULE (ASM). EACH OF THESE
MODULES WILL BE DIVIDED INTO COMPUTER SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION
ITEMS (CSCI) WHICH WILL PERMIT THE SIMULTANEOUS PROCESSING OF
BOTH INTERACTIVE AND AUTOMATIC INTELLIGENCE ANALYSIS ACTIVITIES.
THE INTERACTIVE FUNCTIONS REQUIRE THE JUDGEMENT AND/OR EXPERT
KNOWLEDGE OF AN ANALYST OR SUPERVISOR. AUTOMATIC PROCESSING
FUNCTIONS WHICH ARE FACTORY-SET OR SYSTEM-SUPVSR-SET WILL BE
TRANSPARENT TO THE ANALYST.
b. WORKSTATIONS PERFORMING SS FUNCTIONS PROVIDE SINGLE
SOURCE ANALYSIS AND PROCESSING CAPABILITY. FUNCTIONALITY
INCLUDES MAP OPERATIONS, OVERLAY OPERATIONS, TEMPLATE OPER-
ATIONS, DATABASE UTILITIES MANIPULATION, FILE AND USER UTIL-
ITIES WITH ANALYTIC TOOLS TAILORED TO THE SUPPORTED SOURCE
OPERATIONS (SIGINT, IMINT, CI/HUMINT) ASSET MANAGEMENT, OFFICE
PRODUCT SUITE, COMMUNICATIONS/MESSAGE UTILITIES, AND SYSTEM
ADMINISTRATION. THE SS WORKSTATIONS INTERFACE WITH VARIOUS
ORGANIC SENSORS, EXTERNAL DATA SOURCES THROUGH THE JOINT
DEFENSE INTELLIGENCE SUPPORT SERVICES (JDISS) OVERSTANDARD
COMMUNICATIONS LINKS.
2. THE AS WORKSTATIONS INTERFACE, VIA STANDARD COMMUNICATION
LINKS, WITH THE SS WORKSTATIONS WITHIN THE ACE AND REMOTE WORK-
STATIONS (RWS) OUTSIDE THE ACE USED FOR COLLATERAL PROCESSING.
AS FUNCTIONALITY INCLUDES MAP OPERATIONS, OVERLAY OPERATIONS,
TEMPLATE OPERATIONS, DATABASE UTILITIES/MANIPULATION, NODE
OPERATIONS, HIGH CRITERIA/EVENT ALARM SETTING, FILE AND USER
UTILITIES SUPPORTED BY ANALYTIC TOOLS, COLLECTION MANAGEMENT
OPERATIONS, COMMUNICATIONS/MESSAGE UTILITIES, OFFICE PRODUCT
SUITE, AND SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION.
C. EMPLOYMENT: ASSIGNED TO THE ANALYSIS AND CONTROL ELEMENT
(ACE) HQ, MI CO, ACR AND SEP BDE (EXCLUDING ENHANCED BDE).
WHEN NO ACE YET EXISTS, (WITHIN THE ACR) IT SHOULD BE
ASSIGNED TO TECH CONTROL & ANALYSIS ELEMENT (TCAE).
ONCE ACE REDESIGN OCCURS, IT SHOULD BE ASSIGNED WITHIN
THE ACE TO THE ACE COMMS SECT. UNITS CAN CONFIGURE THEIR
WORKSTATIONS TO MEET MISSION NEEDS.
D. BASIS OF ISSUE:
- 1 PER ACE HQ, MI CO, ACR
- 1 PER ACE HQ, MI CO, SEP BDE (EXCLUDING THE ENHANCED BDE)
E. POWER REQUIREMENTS: POWER SOURCE: IN GARRISON, WORK-
STATIONS UTILIZE COMMERCIAL POWER. WHEN DEPLOYED, THE ACE
IS POWERED BY 2 15KW, 3/4T. TRAILER MTD POWER UNIT DEDICATED

DISTRIBUTION BOX AND SINGLE PHASE OUTPUT FROM THE DISTRI-
BUTION BOX TO THE INDIVIDUAL WORKSTATIONS. UNINTERRUPTIBLE
POWER SOURCE (UPS)INTERFACES 80-132 VAC (47-66 HZ),
166-264 VAC (47-66 HZ) AND 22-32 VDC.
F. TRANSPORTATION REQUIREMENTS: REQUIRES 1 3/4 TON HIGH
