Data to Decisions Applied Research
Abstract
The Joint Data Management Program will be restructured in FY 2012 to a revised Data-to-Decision program. This Data-to-Decision program includes increased objectives and technology developments critical to on-going operations. The program will focus on developing open-architecture technologies for decision support systems to help reduce future development time and cost of data management, analytics and user interface subsystems.The program will use a spiral development model with four-steps. Each year Operational teams will choose a series of cross-service challenge problems dominated by a specific sensing modality. Representative data for each of those problems will then be collected for testing against that problem. A Development team will design algorithms and data management architectures using high-level languages and self test on controlled data sets to address those challenge problems. Independent assessment will occur with sequestered data sets, but each development tool will also be tested against new sensors not included in the self-testing to determine fragility. A Transition team will host the developed algorithms as services in a spiraling prototype system. The Applied Research program will concentrate on the Development portion of this collaborative effort, while the Advanced Technology Development program focuses on the infrastructure piece, to include the Operational, Assessment and Transition portions. There will be five thrust areas in total: cyber-infrastructure, Moving Intelligence (MOVINT) analytics, Text analytics, Imagery Intelligence (IMINT) analytics and User Interactions. MOVINT analytics began in FY 2011; Text Analytics will begin in FY 2012; Cyber-infrastructure, IMINT analytics and User Interactions is planned for FY 2013.
