1. A machine-based method of mission support comprising:
- in a processor, identifying a requirement to support a mission;
identifying a sector to support the requirement;
identifying a function of the sector to support the requirement;
in a memory, recording the identified function to support the requirement;
recording additional knowledge used to identify the function to support the requirement;
identifying an infrastructure asset to support the function;
recording the identified infrastructure asset to support the function; and
recording additional knowledge used to identify the infrastructure asset to support the function.

Abstract
A method of risk management across a mission support network is provided, including identifying a mission of the mission support network, and identifying, by a computer processor, assets of the mission support network. The assets include a mission asset to support the mission and a support asset to provide support to the mission asset. Each of the assets is characterized by a criticality index value to measure how important the asset is to a performance of the mission, and a vulnerability index value to measure a vulnerability of the asset to a threat.

3. A machine-based method of mission support comprising:
-
in a processor, identifying a mission; identifying at least one infrastructure asset to support the mission; and building a mission support network to support the identified mission, wherein the mission support network comprises the at least one identified infrastructure asset characterized by a criticality index value to measure how important the at least one infrastructure asset is to a performance of the mission, and a vulnerability index value to measure a vulnerability of the at least one infrastructure asset to a threat on the mission. - View Dependent Claims (4, 5, 6, 7)
