The shown figure is a depiction of the Boyd cycle (more commonly referred to as the OODA Loop) superimposed upon the major functional sections of the ICMS.

The adaptation of the Boyd cycle as the basis for the functional context of our ICMS design shows a gestalt – systems of systems - nature of our integrated combat management system.
