Mission

The Joint Navigation Warfare Center plans, tasks, integrates, provides C2, and supports integrated Navigation Warfare (NAVWAR) worldwide. Command and control is conducted day-to-day, through reachback capabilities and deployable subject matter experts, in support of combatant commanders (CCDRs). Assistance is provided via the JNWC NAVWAR support cell, coordination cells, and deployable theater coordination cells. CCDR requests for NAVWAR capabilities are supported by United States Space Command components after deconfliction and prioritization of ongoing missions.[2]

History

Established on 1 October 2004, the Joint Navigation Warfare Center was initially under the office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Networks and Information Integration, but in October 2007 was moved under the Joint Functional Component Command for Space, which evolved into United States Space Command.[1]

gollark: Don't the hashing-based ones use ASICs? I read somewhere that Ethereum required general purpose computing, so ASICs for it wouldn't really work.
gollark: Would TPUs even be very good for mining? Not sure what it's constrained by on regular GPUs.
gollark: Is there a recording of the thing anywhere or just the notes document?
gollark: It might actually be useful to have some kind of neural network file format detector for bad formats without clear headers. Or to help recover damaged files.
gollark: Can't wait for the `file` command to take several seconds of heavy GPU load.
