This file represents the categories derived from the glossary and acronyms of ADFP 9 (Australian Defence Force Publication 9). All these categories are concept types.
The FT language is used.
Statements/commands are in the courier font. They are enclosed within
the XHTML marks <KR> and </KR> to permit WebKB-2 to distinguish them
from regular text.

"no storage;" would be the instruction to use during the development of the file
since its knowledge representations must not be committed into the KB before
they are all considered correct (in order to avoid removal operations).
Note: until the content of the file is committed, the new categories exist in
the KB only during the parsing of the file and hence these categories cannot

This file categorizes the types from ADFP 9 in two ways:
- by relating each type to its closest generalization in WordNet (Section 2
and Section 3) to permit the semantic checking of its use and its
access via its generalizations;
- by building a small subsumption hierarchy only for these types (Section 1)
to permit a visual synthesis of the category groups into which the types
from ADFP 9 fall.
Various other relationships between the instances of these types could be represented. In Section 4, a simple data flow of the "deliberate planning process" is represented.
The types that are introduced only for categorization purposes have their
names prefixed by an underscore.
Types named "course of action" and "strategic objectives" have also been
added (they are referred in the annotations of several types).

When the closest WordNet generalization of a type has already been specified
via the above classification, the link is commented out below (see the "//")
in order to prevent warning messages from WebKB-2.

< #vulnerability;
adfp9#culminating_point (^A culminating point is the point in time and location where a force will no longer be stronger than the enemy and risk losing the initiative.

adfp9#JIPB__joint_intelligence_preparation_of_the_battlespace__Joint_Intelligence_Preparation_of_the_Battlefield (^Joint intelligence preparation of the battlespace (JIPB) is a systematic, dynamic process for analysing the threat and the environment, considered in the dimensions of space and time. It is designed to support staff planning and prepare the foundations for informed military decision making. JIPB is a processing medium with which intelligence staff provide an assessment of environmental effects on operations and an estimate of adversary capability and intent.^)

//< #operation;
adfp9#OPCOMD__operational_command (^This is the highest degree of authority which can be assigned to the commander of a joint force operation and is usually retained for the duration of the operation or campaign. It would be normal for the national military strategic authority to place assigned forces under operational command of a national commander who will then have the requisite authority to assign, deploy or reassign forces. For ADF operations, operational command may be delegated to a subordinate commander and will normally include responsibility for administration and logistics.^);
//< #command.status;
adfp9#OPCON__operational_control (^This degree of command gives a nominated commander the authority to direct forces assigned to achieve a specific mission within agreed limitations, usually related to function, time or location.

It does not include responsibility for administration or logistics.^);
//< #command.status;
adfp9#OPINST__operational_instruction (^An operation instruction indicates the commander s intention and possibly the overall plan but leaves the detailed course of action to the subordinate commander.^);
//< #plan;

adfp9#operational_objective (^These are the objectives that need to be achieved in the campaign to reach the military strategic end-state. Correct assessment of operational objectives is crucial to success at the operational level.^)
< #objective; //the 's' at the end of "operational_objectives" has been dropped
adfp9#OPORD__operation_order (^A directive, usually formal, issued by a commander to subordinate commanders for the purpose of effecting the coordinated execution of an operation.^);
//< adfp9#_order
adfp9#OPPLAN__operation_plan (^A plan for a single or series of connected operations to be carried out simultaneously or in succession. It is usually based upon stated assumptions and is the form of directive employed by higher authority to permit subordinate commanders to prepare supporting plans and orders. The designation plan is usually used instead of 'order' in preparing for operations well in advance. An operation plan may be put into effect at a prescribed time, or on signal, and then becomes the operation order.^);
//< #plan;
adfp9#peace_operation (^Peace operations encompass all types of operations designed to assist a diplomatic peace process.^);
//< #operation; //the 's' at the end of "peace_operations" has been dropped

Supporting plans may cover areas such as communications, electronic warfare, movement, administration, public information, intelligence collection, etc. Subordinate formation or unit plans may also be incorporated as supporting plans.^);
//< #plan;
adfp9#TACOMD__tactical_command (^This degree of command allows a commander to assign tasks to forces under his command for the accomplishment of the mission assigned by higher authority. The commander may delegate tactical control of the asset.^);
//< #command.status;
adfp9#TACON__tactical_control (^A force assigned to a commander under tactical control allows local direction and control of movements or manoeuvres necessary to accomplished missions or tasks as directed by the assigning higher commander.^);
