SOSA and the Future of Military Computing

Available on Demand Until May 18, 2024

The future of military computing will, by necessity, involve a lot more commonality and standardization, both within each branch of the armed forces and among the various branches. The Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA) is not a new concept, as the standard and approach has existed for decades, but SOSA’s widespread adoption is new. That adoption, long an industry aspiration, is due to the current convergence of technology and is being driven by the Air Force, Army, Navy, and other government agencies in an effort to develop a unified, technical, open systems approach to complex systems such as radar, EO/IR, signals intelligence (SIGINT), electronic warfare, and communications. SOSA has gained significant traction, with many defense contractors having already demonstrated working hardware and software. This 60-minute webinar from the editors of Aerospace & Defense Technology will highlight some of the lessons learned as SOSA moves towards program requirements as well as the ultimate goal we are aiming for.
