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 Department of Defense Chief Information Officer (DOD CIO) 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 (TMF). This Framework 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. Ongoing beneficiaries of these capabilities include DOD CIO, 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 2013 funding will provide DISN Internet Protocol (IP) and Transport Capacity Planning models, to include FY 2013 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. As the Science and Technology arm of DISA, CTO projects are critical to rapidly 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. Further, as the Department of Defense Global Information Grid (DoD GIG) Chief Technologist, the CTO provides analysis of industry standards and specifications and advises the DoD/CIO on ensuring the framework for information sharing across DoD and the federal community is provided. The CTO provides rapid integration of emerging commercial technologies to gain immediate user feedback, provide risk mitigation, and support enhancements of concept of operations and tactics, techniques, and procedures for initiatives addressing the Chairman's capability gap. The Interoperability Enhancement Process (IEP) supports the resolution of Tactical Data Enterprise Services (TDES) through issues resolution, the developing 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. The 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 use but is often unavailable. Through the EWSE program, no single entity will resolve technical, policy, or programmatic issues on proposed end-to-end solutions. Without defining enterprise requirements, networks would only interface effectively at Tier 0, effectively defeating the transformational advantages of many next generation GIG components.

Document Details

• Document Type: R2 Budgetary Justification
• Publication Date: Oct 01, 2013
• Source ID: 0302019K_7_0400_PB_2013
• Change Summary Explanation: The FY 2011 increase of +$18.255 is due to an increase of +$20.000 for the Cyber Security Program and a decrease of -$1.745 realigned to higher Agency priorities. The FY 2012 increase of +$6.813 is due to an increase of +$7.500 for the Cyber Security Pilots Program and a decrease of -$0.687 for higher headquarter priorities. The FY 2013 increase of +$6.144 is attributable to two factors. The major increase of +$6.000 is due to analysis of industry standards, specifications and rapid integration of emerging commercial technologies to gain immediate user feedback, provide risk mitigation, and support enhancements of concept of operations and tactics, techniques, and procedures for initiatives addressing the Chairman's capability gap. A second increase of +$0.144 is an inflation adjustment.
