Methods for navigating a large amount of data are disclosed. In one embodiment, the present invention accesses a source of formatted warehoused data. The present invention then displays a grid on a display device. In one embodiment, the grid is an iconic representation of the formatted warehoused data. The grid is comprised of elements, each element corresponding to some portion of the formatted warehoused data. The present invention displays a portion of the formatted warehoused data on the display device in response to a selection of a corresponding element of the grid. In another embodiment, the formatted warehoused data is condensed so that it can be read in summary form to a user using a voice-based protocol. The user can issue voice commands to drill down deeper into the data, until the desired information is reached. The user thus doesn't need to hear all of the information in the formatted warehoused data, but instead can make inquiries to directly navigate to a particular item of interest.

Method and system for navigating a large amount of data

A military command and control system includes functional portions which respond to a set of or plurality of commands. Certain commands are mandatory. Specific responses are made in response to the mandatory commands. System tracks are handled differently than local tracks. Command and control systems which use the mandatory command structure are more readily upgraded than prior-art integrated command and control systems.

Command and control system architecture for convenient upgrading

The present invention provides a mobile data communication system which couples application specific remote data sources and mobile devices via an internet based server. An interface is provided by the server for extracting data from the application specific remote data sources. The extracted data is then generalized into generic objects and presented on the mobile devices by device specific application templates.
