Experts will be on hand to discuss and demonstrate capabilities, including:
   -- Advanced Cyber:
       -- CAEN (Computer Attack and Exploitation Network) is a virtual
           environment used to develop critical cyber skills in the areas of
           penetration testing, malware reverse engineering and vulnerability
           research.
       -- XRT (eXpeditionaryRT) is a high-performance computing platform that
           conducts data warehousing, performs data enrichment and executes
           advanced analytics all in a small form factor, available to the
           warfighter. XRT provides real-time ingest, processing, alerting and
           analysis in support of critical SIGINT missions.
       -- Digital Echo™ provides analysis of online content by centralizing
           and standardizing digital content to discover hidden insight through
           qualitative and quantitative analysis. It measures the "Echo" -- the
           spread of topics and concepts through online discourse - of the web,
           whether it is world events, messaging campaigns, brand management,
           key influencers or communication effectiveness. A demonstration will
           be held in Booth 3613 in the Homeland Security Pavilion.
   -- Airborne, Training Solutions: Dash 8 Aircrew Readiness (DART) is a
       system designed to demonstrate and train aircrews on the capabilities of

       flight deck, and multiple sensor suite payloads.
   -- Intelligence Systems Solutions:
       -- GLIMPS (Global Monitoring and Planning Systems) provides accurate
           forecasts of global instability up to 5 years in advance, through
           data mining and machine learning, to discover unseen complex
           relationships between geospatial and cultural indicators, as well as
           instability metrics and events. A demonstration will be held in
           Booth 3613 in the Homeland Security Pavilion.
       -- AIMES is a next-generation motion imagery exploitation tool created
           to solve the tough challenges faced by today's motion imagery
           analysts. It is the full motion video solution of choice for the
           Distributed Common Ground System (DCGS)-Air Force and DCGS-Army.
       -- GeoRover® Software Products provide powerful tools for Esri®
           ArcGIS® for Desktop designed to increase speed, efficiency and
           productivity in common GIS workflows including one application for
           Android™ mobile devices (tablets or phones).
       -- GRGlobe™ application brings enhanced GIS capabilities to the
           Google Earth™ globe providing the ability to create, edit and
           visualize GIS data natively while supporting multiple formats such
           as KML, shapefile and geodatabase.
       -- ISR CrossCue (IXQ) is an automated collaboration tool that allows
           warfighters and analysts to rapidly discover and connect with
           critically needed experts across the intelligence community.
       -- INFORM (Integrated Near Real-Time Framework of Relational
           Multi-source) Data tool identifies and aggregates vast, critical
           user-defined data in near real-time across the organization's
           stovepipes to accelerate access and automate understanding of "Big
           Data" (multi-source, structured and unstructured) and retrieval of
           vital information for decision-making.
   -- Mission Solutions: Soldier Monitoring System (SMS) is a portable,
       lightweight, rapidly transportable situational awareness system. It
       consists of three separate, interfacing components, and provides a
       two-way data (no voice) transfer capability for geo-location of
       personnel and equipment in austere training environments. Easily trained
       and operated, the SMS offers units the ability to monitor the current
       operational status of over 500 personnel in a real-time environment for
       relatively low cost.
   -- Command and Control: Open Architecture Systems C2 Solutions: Our
       approach to command and control (C2) leverages modern open application
       development frameworks with SOA to deliver an efficient, agile,
       modernized mission capability. This approach enables the Army Mission
       Command and other Service C2 systems to exploit the network as a
       platform for delivering integrated, mission-assured capabilities;
       providing continuous, incremental delivery of a fully modernized C2
       cloud application architecture designed to reduce costs and logistical
       support requirements.
The AUSA Annual Meeting, the largest landpower exposition and professional development forum in North America, consists of informative presentations, panel discussions on pertinent military and national security subjects, workshops and important AUSA business meetings.
