Key Integration ChallengesKey Integration Challenges• System-level dependencies
– Platform, operating system, transport, language, and ontology dependencies– System-to-system interdependencies
• Network security and information assurance– Ability to protect, authenticate, and deny data and information
• Insufficient or incomplete metadata– Detailed descriptions on the usefulness of data and quality of data sources
• Incompatible data formats and geographical representations– Multi-step data format conversions– Map translations, coordinate system transformations, etc.
• Increasingly high-bandwidth data rates and data volumes– Lossless data compression, data filtering, data sub-setting
• Data/communication access in bandwidth-limited regions– Improved data access and/or low-rate data access alternatives
• Need for user-orientation and user-oriented services– Intelligent data discovery, keyword searching, data translation services, etc.

Network-Enabled Operations
(NEO)
Progressing towards a solution…
S&IS Mission SystemsS&IS Mission SystemsPhantom WorksPhantom Works
Goal of NEOGoal of NEO
To realize a network enabled environment where all classes of information systems interoperate by integrating existing and emerging open standards into a common evolving global framework that employs a common set of principles and processes.

NEO Value PropositionNEO Value Proposition
• Increased interoperability within, and among, systems involved in Joint, Interagency and Multinational Operations
• Lower system costs as integration activities are reduced and re-use is maximized
• Improved readiness by using existing systems that plug into the network environment more quickly
• Increased pace of new development and focus on domain specific capabilities to system client or user

Strategic Architecture Reference ModelStrategic Architecture Reference Model
• Develop a safe and secure information management architectural reference model and identify open standards and their patterns of use and interoperability
• Enables assets (sensors, systems, people) to act as interoperable nodes that can discover and register its needs and capabilities on a network

• Communications Layer– Essential functions for moving information via IP-based standards
• Information Layer– Common functions/services for information exchange/interchange
• Applications Layer– Program-specific functions for processing or using information
• Presentation (HMI) Layer– Program-specific presentations of information to users
