WORKSHOP A: 9:00 - 11:30
A Technical Assessment of Open Architecture Systems for Military Use
Led By: Dr. Douglas C. Schmidt, Deputy Director, Research, and Chief technology Officer,
Software Engineering institute, Carnegie Mellon University
the goal of employing Open Architecture systems for military use is to to foster competition and innovation to improve performance
and affordability via the use of modular designs, enabling public access to design specifications, reusing software design documentation
and implementation artifacts, mandating common interface standards, and achieving seamless interoperability between system
hardware and software applications. At the heart of Open Architecture systems are architectural concepts, services, and tools that
are maturing as standards-based, commercial-off-the-shelf (COtS) frameworks, component-based and service-oriented middleware,
and model-driven engineering technologies. Despite substantial advances in these technologies during the past decade, however, key
challenges must be addressed before we can affordable and dependably build next-generation Open Architecture systems.
This workshop will therefore:
• Provide a survey of key characteristics that make architectures “open”
• Examine the evolution of standards and enabling technologies that are relevant for open architectures
• Summarize new challenges for open architecture systems arising from growth of scale, complexity, and expanded threat spectrum
• Evaluate strategies for overcoming these challenges, as well as limitations with existing open architecture efforts
• Review examples from the avionics and shipboard computing domains that illustrate key points

WORKSHOP B: 12:30 - 14:30
Developing Open Systems Architecture
Led By: Mr Simon Masley, MOD DE&S Land Open systems Architecture Lead, UK MoD
this workshop is based on our experience of implementing open system architecture in the land sector of MOD. it will be of use to those
seeking to work with the MOD, both customers and suppliers, and for those organisations wanting to implement their own open system
architectures. it will cover what an open system architecture is, how it might be useful to you and look at benefits and risks. it will help
you to work through the context in which you want to implement an open system architecture before taking you through some of the
factors you need to consider during implementation. We will then summarise and discuss the ‘take homes’. it will require participation
from all and help you situate open systems in your own particular context. At the end of it, we hope you will have a clear idea of what is
involved in going down this route.
