Information Technology
Abstract
The Air Force requires technologies that improve and automate their capability to generate, process, manage, fuse, exploit, interpret, and disseminate timely and accurate information. This project improves global awareness at all levels, enabling warfighters to understand relevant military situations on a consistent basis with the timeliness and precision needed to accomplish their missions. Global awareness is achieved by exploiting information provided by the Air Force, other government agencies, and open source information. The information is fused to support the dynamic planning, assessment, and execution cycles via the global information enterprise. Knowledge, information, and data are all archived in the global information base for continued use and historical analysis. The information technologies required to achieve this capability are developed under this project in an affordable manner and include appropriate access mechanisms for our coalition partners. This project develops high-payoff embedded information systems technologies for the next generation of distributed information integration architectures to enable global information dominance and air and space superiority. The embedded information systems technologies provide affordable, innovative, secure, net-enabled embedded information systems to the warfighter.
