MOUNTED COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT (MCE)

Abstract

The COE is a set of standardized computing technologies that facilitates secure and interoperable applications to be rapidly developed and executed across a variety of computing environments. The MCE, one of the six computing environments (CEs) formalized by the AAE under the COE directive, standardizes end-user environments while enabling streamlined deployment of new warfighting applications. The JBC-P is the foundational element and core software platform of the MCE. Development of the MCE continues to leverage JBC-P hardware and software to consolidate and integrate multiple warfighting systems in the Platform (mounted) environment. This integrated MCE, with its open standards, enhanced interoperability, and simplified end-user interface will speed delivery of new Mission Command applications to the warfighter while improving the effectiveness and value of current systems. Requirements for the MCE are established in the AAE Directive Memo, the JBC-P Capability Development Document (CDD), and in the Mounted Computing Environment Information System Initial Capabilities Document (MCE IS ICD) (DRAFT). FY 2017 funding provides the means to continue to manage and develop MCE, which has a larger horizontal scope than the foundational element (JBC-P), as it aids in achieving CE and COE goals.
