Conference Focus: C4ISR refers to systems that are part of the command, control, communications, computer, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance domain. Using a complex system of systems referred to as C4ISR, the overall aim is for the US Army, US Air Force, US Marines and US Navy to communicate effectively on the battlefield amongst themselves and with coalition partners. C4ISR interoperability integrates warfighting capabilities at the tactical, organizational, and operational levels to create one lethal force and is a key initiative that emerged from infancy in the President’s initial Joint Force 2010 initiative. The 3rd Annual C4ISR Interoperability Conference will focus on interoperability across forces and coalition partners, the development of a standard architecture for communication and joint command and control processes. Attention will be paid to the pivotal role of converting legacy systems, the global information grid GIG and the significance of information assurance and security in providing the warfighter with essential bandwidth and secure communications.
Key Topics to be Addressed:
• Sharing information on how C4ISR Inteeroperability continues to beuseful with emphasis on future plans
• In-depth analysis into needed technological requirements to improve the overall function of C4ISR
• Discussing the overall direction of C4ISR with specific reference to Information sharing and security
• Encapsulating the importance of architectures and information infrastructures in enhancing real-time communications
• Highlighting the significance of additional bandwidth to the success of the warfighter
