IV. Conclusion<br />

The aim of this paper was to introduce computer language syntax <strong>and</strong> semantic<br />

processing techniques as a means to achieve semantic interoperability in the selected<br />

areas of C2 systems. We tried to point out the parallels between PLs <strong>and</strong> DSLs exploitable<br />

in military information systems regarding their syntactical <strong>and</strong> semantic<br />

processing. The role of a trained military comm<strong>and</strong>er in relation to a DSL can be<br />

analogical to the role of a computer programmer in relation to a programming<br />

language. Other aspects of utilizing CLs within the military domain are connected<br />

with the NNEC <strong>and</strong> system integration challenges [18], [19], [20]. In this paper we<br />

also tried to introduce the notion of DSLs with multilingual support in the context<br />

of C2 systems. Due to national information systems integration <strong>and</strong> interoperability
