Title: Airborne Internet / Collaborative Information Environment

Airborne Internet / Collaborative
InformationEnvironment
  • A presentation to AIG/WG

By the Airborne Internet Collaboration/Working
Group Randy.Schmidt_at_NGC.com presenting March 3,
2004
2
Three Main Points
  • If the right aviation information at the right
    time is the goal
  • Discovery on Demand usingXML Web Services is
    the solution
  • Allowing the transformation to a Collaborative
    Information Environment (CIE)

3
The right aviation informationat the right time
  • Led to the concept of an AirborneInternet (AI)
  • A private, secure, and reliable peer-to-peer
    aircraft communications network that uses the
    same technologies as the commercial Internet
  • However, the AI does not currently provide a
    universal way to find
  • Decision quality information

Discovery on Demand
6
Discovery on Demand
  • Accomplished through XML Web Services
  • Software components that can be published,
    located, and run over the Internet using
    Extensible Markup Language (XML)
  • XML definition
  • A markup language that describes data in a
    structured and human-readable text format
  • Example ltaircraftgt
    ltn-numbergtN500EAlt/n-numbergt
    ltmakegtEclipselt/makegt
    ltmodelgt500lt/modelgt lt/aircraftgt

XML Web Services
  • Are used to
  • Allow other applications to call modules of code
    remotely with XML
  • Expose data in a database as XML
  • Send XML messages
  • E.g. alerts and notifications
  • Build Service Oriented Architectures (SOA)
  • Flexible, reusable, and lower cost

XML Web Services
Industry standards for interoperability
  • Enable disparate systems to work together
  • Across languages, platforms, applications
  • Computer to computer
  • Inside/outside the firewall
  • Based on open Internet standards
  • XML, SOAP, WSDL, and UDDI
  • Broad industry support
  • Key area of vendor alignment

Collaborative Information Environment (CIE)
  • The transformation of the Internet byXML Web
    Services
  • 2nd generation Web (Web 1 ? Web 2)
  • Military example SharePoint PortalHeads Up
    Display (HUD) experiment
  • Uses XML Web Services to create a CIEthat
    combines information from
  • NASA
  • Synchronized Air Power Management (SAPM)
  • Defense Collaboration Tool Suite (DCTS)
  • JEMPRS-NT

12
Joint Enroute Mission Planning and Rehearsal
System-Near Term (JEMPRS-NT)
  • Operational Needs During Deployment
  • Situational Awareness
  • Collaborative Operating Environment
  • Enroute SITREP/Crisis Action Planning
  • Support of Rapid Decisive Operations

  • Application Sharing
  • Whiteboard and Text Chat
  • Digital Dashboard
  • E-mail and FTP
  • XML Web Services
  • Network Access to Other Systems

AI / CIE ? Internet and Web 1
  • The AI / CIE is about
  • End users, not webmasters
  • Edge devices, not clients and servers
  • XML Web Services, not web pages
  • XML knowledge packets, not just TCP/IP
    connections
  • Types Maintenance, Flight, Entertainment, etc.
  • Built-in security, not security as an afterthought

18
AI / CIE interfaces securely withthe following
networks
  • The commercial Internet
  • Assured extranet connections
  • OnSATS
  • AirTraveler.com (formerly SATS-Net)
  • Carries Assured Aviation XML Web Services
  • Client-side end user intranets

Conclusion
  • If the right aviation information at the right
    time is the goal
  • Discovery on Demand usingXML Web Services is
    the solution
  • Allowing the transformation to a Collaborative
    Information Environment (CIE)
