DOD SYMPOSIUM: DOD INFORMATION MANAGEMENT FOR THE WARFIGHTER: A CRITICAL ASSESSMENT The Assistant Secretary of Defense for Command, Control Communication and Intelligence (C3I) announces a symposium, DOD INFORMATION MANAGEMENT FOR THE WARFIGHTER: A CRITICAL ASSESSMENT which will be conducted at the Ritz Carlton Hotel, Tysons Corner, VA on 9-10 January, 1996. This symposium follows the successful December 1994, CORPORATE INFORMATION MANAGEMENT-ENTERPRISE INTEGRATION which concentrated on the technological basis and rational for Information Management Programs. This event moves beyond that stage and provides a detailed look at current programs with great emphasis on architecture and functional impact on command and control-status of resources, functions, and infrastructure are also chosen for review. Since DOD Programs are deliberately designed to leverage on commercial technology, hardware and software, industry is called upon to provide the alternate keynote address followed with a series of presentation addressing commercial technologies and equipments that may be adapted to further DOD capability. A current CINC provides the JCS assessment as to whether current programs serve the warfighter. The program is closed with a panel discussion of involved congressional staffer who provide the congressional perspective. This symposium has a limited number of conference seats and available hotel rooms. Registrations will be on a first come first served basis.
