A. (U) MISSION DESCRIPTION AND BUDGET ITEM JUSTIFICATION: This program is established under the Joint Military Intelligence Program reflecting the combination of Joint Deployable Intelligence Support Systems (JDISS) program and the Linked Operations Intelligence Centers Europe (LOCE) program. The goal is to use the best functionality from LOCE and develop the system into the JDISS common intelligence baseline thereby eliminating different systems with near duplicate functionality and centering on JDISS as the DoD common intelligence workstation baseline. The RDT&E funding will be used to work on the development of LOCE functionality onto JDISS, develop LOCE tools as a model of intelligence services for a JDISS coalition system, develop all functionality to the Defense Information Infrastructure (DII), development of JDISS segments in the Global Command and Control System and the serviced systems Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence (C4I) systems, and adopt new technology as it becomes available into the JDISS intelligence environment.

(U) JUSTIFICATION FOR BUDGET ACTIVITY: This program is funded under OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT because it encompasses engineering and manufacturing development for upgrade of existing, operational systems.

(U) PROGRAM ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND PLANS

1. (U) FY 1996 ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Not applicable.

2. (U) FY 1997 PLAN: Funded in Program Element 0604231N project R2295 in FY 1997.

(U) ($2,442) Work will begin to create a centralized office that provides a single solution for interoperability for intelligence sharing at special compartmented information, collateral and NATO levels and sustains current capabilities. JDISS/LOCE research and development is required to develop interfaces to new theater and national intelligence platforms and sources. The JDISS/LOCE development will ensure interoperability with the Navy's Joint Maritime Command Information System, Army's All Source Analysis System Warlord system, Air Force's Combat Information System, and USMC's Interactive Analysis System, while all systems continue to evolve to a common DII. Effort will also focus on development of a coalition system integration that allow for varying releasability levels on a single network.

(U) ($66) Portion of extramural program reserved for Small Business Innovation Research Assessment in accordance with 15 USC 638.

3. (U) FY 1998 PLAN:

(U) ($2,412) RDT&E funding will focus on the continued development and implementation of intelligence tools for a DII based system with functionality to deliver a robust and flexible capability for use in both U.S. and coalition warfare. Continued developments in security, collaborative computing, and communications technology will require ongoing RDT&E funding to support the greater than 2000 JDISS users worldwide. Ongoing technical integration will also be required to continue development of enhanced JDISS interoperability with service C4I systems.

4. (U) FY 1999 PLAN:

(U) ($2,293) RDT&E funds will continue to provide for the development and implementation of intelligence tools for a DII based system for use in both U.S. and coalition warfare. Ongoing RDT&E funds will be required to provide for continued developments in security, collaborative computing, communications technology and technical integration to continue development of enhanced JDISS interoperability with service C4I systems.
