Excerpt: Joint Interoperability of Tactical Command and Control Systems or JINTACCS is a United States military standard for the development and maintenance of tactical information exchange configuration items (CIs) and operational procedures. It was originated to ensure that the command and control (C2 and C3) and weapons systems of all US military services and NATO forces would be interoperable.It is made up of standard Message Text Formats (MTF) for man-readable and machine-processible information, a core set of common warfighting symbology, and data link standards called Tactical Data Links (TDLs).A hyperlinked version of this chapter is at JOVIAL is a high-order computer programming language similar to ALGOL , but specialized for the development of embedded systems (specialized computer systems designed to perform one or a few dedicated functions , usually embedded as part of a complete device including mechanical parts).JOVIAL is an acronym for "J ules O wn V ersion of the I nternational A lgorithmic L anguage." The "International Algorithmic Language" was a name originally proposed for ALGOL 58 . It was developed to compose software for the electronics of military aircraft by Jules Schwartz in 1959.During the 1960s JOVIAL was a part of the US Military
