Military & Government EHRs and Health Data Interoperability, Where Are We Going? What Technologies will be Needed To Get There? What Are the Opportunities for Industry? How will Open Architecture Affect the Future Connectivity of the Military & Government Health IT Ecosystem? As part of the Omnibus Appropriations Bill, the Federal Government has set goals for the DoD and the VA around the former’s Electronic Health Record select...

By 2020, an estimated 30-50 billion devices will be connected to the internet. Each of these devices will collect and communicate massive amounts of data, and as these devices become more sophisticated they are incorporating the ability to analyze the data and plan, manage and make intelligent decisions autonomously about sharing that information via embedded machine-to-machine communications with other internet-capable devices. DoD, to some e...

Future Requirements – Missions – Capabilities – Opportunities The need for more and technologically superior ISR assets now permeates government planning across a broad range of critical missions. Today, from the Middle East to the increasingly tumultuous Asia-Pacific region and even home to CONUS, the urgent need for a diverse and evolving leap-ahead ISR Automated Technology is paramount to counter increasingly sophisticated...

Emerging Opportunities, Needs and Challenges Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UASs) and Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) have seen a golden age in the last decade growing to an annual budget of $7 billion. Most of this growth has been through the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, but with the drawing down of troops, what’s next? Analysts still predict growth in this industry, estimating a total increase to just over $89 billion in the next decade....

The Next Big Thing! – Civil and Commercial Unmanned Aircraft Systems The markets for civil and commercial unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) or Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs) are poised to explode. UAS manufacturers who to date have been feeding the huge defense market are being joined by an ever increasing number of non-defense UAS platform and payload developers who are targeting the potentially enormous markets for civil and commercial cap...

Unlike traditional manufacturing, which involves creating a smaller object from a larger source material, additive manufacturing takes raw materials, feeds them through a digital manufacturing system and creates a customized object from that material, eliminating excess material waste. This potential ability to exchange AM design and manufacturing capabilities via file sharing has enormous potential ramifications for reducing shipping and prod...

The Department of Defense continues to be the largest single acquirer and user of energy and energy systems and technologies in the world. While most continue to be petroleum and petroleum-based products, there is also a steadily growing market for alternative energies. In addition, DoD and the Services are investing heavily in new technologies to improve energy efficiency and management, whether at fixed installations or in the deployed, mobi...
