Given the COVID-19 pandemic, this paper aims at providing a full-process information system to support the detection of pathogens for a large range of populations, satisfying the requirements of light weight, low cost, high concurrency, high reliability, quick response, and high security. The project includes functional modules such as sample collection, sample transfer, sample reception, laboratory testing, test result inquiry, pandemic analysis, and monitoring. The progress and efficiency of each collection point as well as the status of sample transfer, reception, and laboratory testing are all monitored in real time, in order to support the comprehensive surveillance of the pandemic situation and support the dynamic deployment of pandemic prevention resources in a timely and effective manner. Deployed on a cloud platform, this system can satisfy ultra-high concurrent data collection requirements with 20 million collections per day and a maximum of 5 million collections per hour, due to its advantages of high concurrency, elasticity, security, and manageability. This system has also been widely used in Jiangsu, Shaanxi provinces, for the prevention and control of COVID-19 pandemic. Over 100 million NAT data have been collected nationwide, providing strong informational support for scientific and reasonable formulation and execution of COVID-19 prevention plans.

The area of military operations is presently a peculiar, heterogenic environment providing the decision-makers with varied data and information on the potential or the real enemy. However the vast number and diversity of the available information does not facilitate the decision process. The achievement of information advantage in line with the rule: the first to notice, the first to understand and the first to act depends among other things on the proper information processing. In the theory of Electronic Warfare, the processing of information about the electronic objects of the enemy emitting electromagnetic energy is realized by Signals Intelligence. The fastest processing of information in the information system of Signals Intelligence is presently provided by cybernetic environment. The construction of an information processing system in the cybernetic environment of Signals Intelligence is thus a very complex task. The article presents theoretical basis of information processing in cybernetic environment of Signals Intelligence based on research carried out by the authors. The article can be described as the added value since it presents and clarifies a complex concept of cybernetic environment of Signal Intelligence. Moreover, it provides a new definition of information process as a system of operations on intelligence information and data. It also presents the stages of information process as well as the structure of information processing process. In the further part it shows the factors and elements of the cybernetic environment of Signals Intelligence isolated in the process of research. The document provides a perspective for the processing of information in the cybernetic environment of Signals Intelligence, it fills the gap in research on information processing in the cybernetic environment of Signals Intelligence as well as assures strong theoretical basis and provides an incentive for further research on the information processing in the cybernetic environment of Signals Intelligence.
