Suitable term for a group of missions

Question

I'm designing a computer application for a client, and I'm looking for a good term to describe a group of missions.

I have, at the moment, a single mission containing a series of well-defined steps, but I need to be able to package up multiple missions for delivery to an entity responsible for allocating each mission to other entities, for execution in parallel.

I've had a look at the dictionaries suggested here but, while they provide the plural form "missions", that's not really what I'm after.

I have come up with "mission set" but I was rather hoping for something a little more compact (i.e., a single word). Usage would be along the lines of:

The workload manager is responsible for packaging up related missions into a single mission set and sending that through to the mission controller. That controller will then distribute each mission to a mission executor for parallel execution.

The "mission set" is the bit I'm trying to get a better term for.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

In the military world (and also outside the military), a set of missions with a common goal could be referred to as a campaign:

campaign noun
1 :a connected series of military operations forming a distinct phase of war.
2 : a connected series of operations designed to bring about a particular result.

_{Source: Merriam-Webster — campaign}

Examples:

• The group launched a campaign to protect the area from commercial development.
• The university is organizing a campaign to attract a more diverse student population.
• The workload manager is responsible for packaging up related missions into a single campaign and sending that through to the mission controller.

Answer 2

Try batch:

batch noun
2 c : a group of jobs (such as programs) that are submitted for processing on a computer and whose results are obtained at a later time
