On Tuesday, 20 July 2010, the KML Center Consortium will hold its first Technical Project Team meeting. The research team will discuss the current status of Research Project 1 (Cloud Computing - Security Focus) and Research Project 2 (Data Quality), which seek to address technological challenges confronting the United States Transportation Command as it pursues a network-based, service-oriented Cloud Computing environment.

Presentation:

The Data Deluge

Identifying the Core Problem rather than dealing with the symptoms.

The KML Center is pleased to announce today that Unisys has joined the KML Center Consortium at the 'Contributor' level.

CHALLENGE:  The complexity of the Joint Deployment and Distribution Enterprise (JDDE) and the increasing demands being placed upon it daily limit the effectiveness, efficiency, and responsiveness of current operational processes.  The U.S. Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) recognizes that there is a compelling need for the national defense digital network systems and the processes that they support to be elevated from data to information management. Currently the translation of data to information is the responsibility of the human user. With the enormous volume of data that flows through the JDDE on a daily basis, the increasing expectations of improved decisions, the complexity of the JDDE electronic infrastructure, and acknowledged cyber security vulnerabilities, the need for software intelligence has become an absolute necessity.

OBJECTIVE:  The purpose of the Innovation Roundtable Conference is to bring the best and brightest innovators in Government, Industry, and Academia together to explore the Art of the Impossible pertaining to the next generation problem statement for USTRANSCOM.

REGISTRATION:  Conference details can be found on the registration website: https://einvitations.afit.edu/McNabb182/anim.cfm and the down-loadable Request for Information (RFI).
