About the Event
The Tri-Service Open Architecture Interoperability Demonstration is a unique, one-day event bringing leading technical experts and decision-makers together. Keynotes, interactive demonstrations and a product showcase from industry partners (https://tsoa-id.com/partners/) will provide attendees a first-hand experience to witness the latest advancements and greater maturity in the growing open market ecosystem. Live demonstrations will include: Interoperability, Embedded Systems Integration, Module Development, Conformance (qualification) and Systems Realization. Advance registration to attend is required due to limited seating availability; attendee passes are complimentary.
With FACE™, as well as standards defined through HOST, SOSA™, CMOSS and more, several Army, Navy and Air Force representatives will reveal the ease of interoperability for the first time. Demonstrations will show how that allows for faster transition and incorporation of innovation, delivery of new capabilities (or replacement technology) and alleviates having to change all components in an entire system. www.tsoa-id.com
