Demonstrating Tactical Cloudlet Technology for the U.S. Marine Corps

Abstract

Reason for Adopting Tactical Cloudlet Technology. Tactical cloudlets are discoverable, forward-deployed compute nodes that can be hosted in the field on vehicles or other platforms to provide: infrastructure to offload computation; forward-data-staging for a mission; data filtering to remove unnecessary data from streams intended for dismounted warfighters; collection points for data heading for enterprise repositories.
