Abstract

The current way of controlling operational units moving in a given space cannot work without a well-thought way of command and control. Command and control may be generally defined as a system consisting of personal, technical, and legislative components created to provide coordination and commanding of operational units with the aim to complete required goals of an operation. A significant part of command and control is played by the decision-making process, during which an individual or a team chooses the best solution of the all possible ones. Depending on the task, facts about the given task are found, as well as connections with solution of other tasks, factors that influence the given task, and preferences that need to be considered before making the decision.
