C4ISR is an acronym for command, control, communications, computer, intelligence, and surveillance and reconnaissance. The C4ISR system is a man-machine system which combines the technology of computer with the commanding personnel to command and control the troops and weapons. In the 1950s command automation was called the C2(command and control) system. In the 1960s, with the development of communication technology, C3(command, control and communication) system was formed by adding “Communication”to the system. In 1977, the United States first “Intelligence”as an indispensable element of command automation, and with the C3 system, the formation of C3i (command, control, communications and intelligence) system. Later, due to the increasing role of computers in the system, command automation was added “Computer”, into a C4I (command, control, communication, computer and intelligence) system. In recent years, continuous local wars have made people realize the importance of mastering battlefield situation, and put forward the concept of “Battlefield perception”, therefore, the C4I system has further evolved into a C4ISR (command, control, communication, computer and intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance) system which includes “Surveillance”and “Reconnaissance”.

Scheme design
　　The main problem of the current command and control automation system is that the computing power is not strong and the real-time performance is poor. The HPEC 6000 system for C4ISR applications provides 10GigE-RapidIO-Gateway core technology, which is suitable for all kinds of C4ISR applications, the system integrates 10-gigabit Ethernet and RapidIO technology seamlessly, which not only ensures the super real time performance of the system, but also ensures the good interconnection between the systems, and is easy to construct the large scale and real time C4ISR cluster command and control system. In addition, the Ethernet-Over-RapidIO technology provided by HPEC 6000 greatly reduces the difficulty and risk of user application development and integration of C4ISR. With this technology, users can easily port their existing c code or MPI programs. In addition, HPEC 6000 also provides integrated API support and application development programming model for CSNA, which provides strong support for users to develop large-scale C4ISR applications.
