Transformative Apps
Abstract
Transformative Apps created the information infrastructure required to enable mission support and tactical applications (apps) to meet the efficiency, security, and availability requirements for use on mobile military networks. Particularly noteworthy was the development of a new data synchronization architecture between handheld devices and backend computing/storage nodes. Additionally, appropriate middleware services and libraries were developed to facilitate shared capabilities such as map viewing, apps management, and collection of logs, usage statistics, and user feedback. Apps, together with handhelds and networks, were tested in different training environments as well as in deployed environments. Performance and usage were carefully tracked and user feedback collected to guide rapid enhancement of apps. The effort created a military apps development community by reaching out to non-traditional performers and explored new models for software acquisition based on end-user empowerment.
