Abstract

The Global Information Grid (GIG) Enterprise Wide Systems Engineering (EWSE) project resolves near term (1 to 3 years) high-priority technical issues defined by Assistant Secretary of Defense-Networks and Information Integration (ASD-NII) and DISA, that impact operational capabilities affecting GIG end-to-end (E2E) interoperability and performance. The Chief Technology Officer (CTO) supports efforts that will strengthen the delivery of critical GIG products, services, and capabilities to the warfighter through the establishment of the DISA Technology Management Framework which provides analysis, strategies, and roadmaps, as well as technology development and insertion into DISA programs of record, while also influencing Service/Agency program technology investments. As the Science and Technology arm of DISA, CTO projects are critical to providing the venue for technology assessment and insertion in DISA (and DoD) that will result in more efficient and effective technology investments and ultimately improved global, net-centric operations. The Modeling and Simulation project provides architecture, systems engineering and end-to-end analytical functions for DISA and its customers, ensuring integrated capabilities to fulfill warfighter mission requirements. Continuous direct beneficiaries of these capabilities include ASD NII, the DISA Network Services Directorate, Program Executive Office-Mission Assurance (PEO-MA), the DISN Command Center (DCC), Joint Communications Simulation System (JCSS) users in DoD, and other DISA programs/projects such as Net-Centric Enterprise Services (NCES), CENTRIXS Cross Enclave Requirement (CCER) (PEO-C2C), etc. FY 2012 funding will provide modeling capabilities that will provide DISN Internet Protocol (IP) and Transport Capacity Planning models, to include FY 2012 Technology Refresh and new user requirements, DoD Internet traffic models and analyses for capacity planning and IA initiatives, Voice and Video over IP (VVoIP) modeling tools supporting the Unified Capabilities Requirements (UCR) Document and end-to-end security goals of the evolving DISN, enhanced modeling and instrumentation techniques for net-centric applications planning and tuning and JCSS modeling tools supporting the combatant commands. The Interoperability Enhancement Process (IEP) supports the resolution of Tactical Data Enterprise Services (TDES) through implementation of issues resolution, the development of TDES capability, and TDES verification and certification. The overarching objective of the IEP will be to support the realization and maintenance of interoperable Net-Centric weapons, sensors, and Command and Control (C2) systems at the tactical edge. Demand-Assigned Multiple Access Compatible (DAMA-C) Ultra High Frequency Satellite Communications (UHF SATCOM) is an essential capability supporting combat search and rescue missions, and other safety-of-life operations. The DAMA-C program will provide significantly improved sharing of legacy UHF satellite resources for tens of thousands of disadvantaged user terminals. The Enterprise Wide Systems Engineering (EWSE) project will provide technical solutions to addresses unique end-to-end interoperability and performance in DoD and GIG areas of concern. Enterprise-level technical requirements are undefined for a significant number of GIG end-to-end issues. EWSE provides end-to-end system documentation that defines functional, performance, and interface guidelines that programs can build to that is often unavailable. Through the EWSE program, no single entity will resolve technical, policy, programmatic issues in a time manner on proposed end-to-end solutions. Without enterprise requirements definition, networks would only interface effectively at Tier 0, effectively defeating the transformational advantages of many next generation GIG components.

Change Summary Explanation
The increase of +$11.753 in FY 2010 is due to the following: technical performance analysis assessments, systems architecture development, integration management and technical strategies +$.845M, Design Reference Work +$.557M, UHF-Integrated Waveform +$.351M, and a one-time Congressional-Add for Cyber Security (for the implementation of a cyber accelerator business model ) +$10M. The decrease of -$0.736 in FY2012 is attributable to the completion of the Interoperability Enhancement Process.
