This paper describes key concepts of composable FORCEnet, which is the US Navy's operational construct architectural framework for naval warfare in the information age. It describes the concepts and architecture, in several categories: (1) systems and general software engineering; (2) networks; (3) intelligent software; and (4) network security. The engineering approach to implement FORCEnet is an example of rapid prototyping in which the requirements of the users are reviewed periodically and frequently with considerable user input. This method, which captures and implements changes in user requirements, strongly supports the development of relevant and useful systems with up-to- date technology that will be responsive to the users' rapidly changing needs. / NOTE: Conference paper. / Supplementary Notes: Presented at the International Conference on Applied Information and Communications (5th), held in Malta on 15-17 Sep 2005.
