Synapse Navy SBIR FY2009.1 Sol No.: Navy SBIR FY2009.1 Topic No.: N091-037 Topic Title: Synapse Proposal No.: N091-037-0591 Firm: Architecture Technology Corporation 9971 Valley View Road Eden Prairie, Minnesota 55344 Contact: Ryan Marotz Phone: (952) 829-5864 Web Site: www.atcorp.com Abstract: The Joint Mission Planning System (JMPS) is a software tool used to develop weapons-data load inputs and route plans prior to sortie execution; however, JMPS is notably lacking in real-time, multi-user collaboration features that allow pilots and other planners to better optimize mission plans. To provide reliable collaboration, Architecture Technology Corporation (ATC) proposes Synapse, a network-aware collaboration component for JMPS, which will enable geographically separated users to exchange mission information in a real-time, bandwidth efficient manner. Synapse will decrease the Navy''''''''s the time-to-plan and increase sortie rates, thus optimizing air group performance and increasing warfighter effectiveness. Synapse will be designed as a software plug-in product that integrates seamlessly into existing and future JMPS software releases. Benefits: Synapse will provide both military and commercial customers the ability to collaborate in real-time with data through both stand-alone files and applications. Synapse provides an automated, error-free system that will decrease planning time and increase performance. Return
