Award Data

As the complexity and size of systems grow and subsystems become more specialized, the amount of design information that needs to be captured, managed, and put into use increases. No single individual can adequately comprehend the sheer magnitude of this data. Currently, the processes to communicate, share or manage cross domain information consist of many manual steps and limited discrete insta ...

Increasingly, national and international organizations are relying on a standards-based simulation infrastructure to interconnect simulation capabilities, to increase simulation interoperability and control modeling and simulation costs. Missile Defense Agency programs are no exception, and require the communication of a large volume and broad spectrum of data for mission scenarios. Building a sec ...

As the complexity and size of technological systems grows and subsystems become more specialized, the amount of design information that needs to be captured, managed and put into use increases. No single individual can adequately comprehend the sheer magnitude of this data requiring the use of databases and automated tools within each domain of the process and stovepiped environments. An integrat ...

The development and maintenance of large, complex systems and systems of systems such as the DDX or Aegis systems requires a monumental degree of planning and organization in order to complete even the seemingly most simple tasks. To make matters even more challenging, the DDX system is engaged in a Spiral Development and Technology Insertion paradigm in which systems are developed, and then inse ...

Trident Systems is participating in a unique collaboration in order to spread the workload of designing systems that perform analysis and tradeoffs. The companies participating make up a “Collaborative Development Partnership” (CDP). The result of this combined effort will be a Collaborative Tool Framework (CTF) that will provide open APIs allowing companies to plug-in tools that can aid the ...

Federated simulations address the need for interoperability, as well as the improvement of reuse and composability. The focal goal in a federated simulation is to facilitate composable simulations by standardizing interfaces to assure technical interoperability among disparate simulations. Yet, existing federated simulation infrastructures neither facilitate substantive interoperability nor are dy ...

Complex, dynamically reconfigurable, distributed systems are common in today’s component-based mission-critical systems. Conventional testing tools used for certifying such systems are less likely to succeed in such less-predictable and evolving domains where underlying assumptions with respect to the structure of the system are constantly being violated. Furthermore, given the vast complexity o ...

All existing web-based groupware tools lack any provision for multi-level security. Furthermore, the size and complexity of such software makes it extremely unlikely that any potential extensions to support multiple security levels could ever be certified or accredited across clearance levels. Trident Systems proposes to leverage the Multiple Independent Levels of Security (MILS) architecture and ...

The C5I Modernization Process for Strike Force deployment represents a complex integration of data products to plan, assess, schedule and maintain configuration control over the systems and models that comprise the systems and systems-of-systems of today’s surface Navy. This process requires significant effort on the part of Program Managers to continuously update ship systems and maintain ship ...

Special Operations Forces deployed to remote areas have a need for technically innovative UAV ISR data delivered in real-time via common secure data communication architectures. Despite recent technological advances, delivering still imagery, video and other sensor data down to the SOF team level over a single medium in near real-time is still not possible. Trident Systems proposes to build a sm ...
