This paper examines the implications of network-centric warfare for information system development: How should we build C2 information systems for net-centric operations? We begin with six highly-probable predictions for the NCW future. From these we derive a number of present implications for system development: things we should do now, and problems we will have to solve along the way. Our answers touch on the information technology to be employed within the systems, the architectural principles that will guide and structure their development, and the acquisition process used to build and deploy the systems.
