The solution of a complex scientific and technical task to assess the effectiveness of the information system of missile troops and artillery in operations should be based on uniform methodological principles and take into account the system of indicators that reflect the state, structure and development of the information system, including its individual components that ensure the functioning of the system of missile troops and artillery, its role in the decision-making process in operations.
The proposed approaches to the formation of indicators of the information system to support decision-making management of missile troops and artillery in operations take into account the trends in the development of modern information technologies aimed at imparting intellectual properties of the created information systems.
Modern requirements to the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the control processes of missile troops and artillery in operations require a deep and comprehensive analysis of information flows and communications between officials of management bodies. Based on this, it is proposed to assess the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of information flows and communications between officials of management bodies in a given time interval, taking into account the specifics of the tasks through the apparatus of graph theory in order to improve the efficiency of the information system of missile troops and artillery. The complex criterion of system efficiency of information system for support of decision-making by management of rocket troops and artillery in operations is offered, allowing to give the cumulative, system estimation of subsystems and objects of information system of rocket troops and artillery which are at any stage of a life cycle.
It is established that, taking into account the specifics of the creation and functioning of the information system of missile troops and artillery, a quantitative assessment and justification of a promising information system is required when solving quality management problems at all stages of its life cycle. Among such tasks are planning, forecasting and justification of the prospective information system of missile troops and artillery in the process of creation and further development, development of technical specifications for the creation and modernization of the information system of missile troops and artillery.
