Rep Invariant Awarded Navy Phase 1 SBIR

The Navy has awarded Rep Invariant Systems, Inc. a Phase I SBIR contract for "Real-Time, Bandwidth Optimized Collaboration Mission Planning Infrastructure." The Joint Mission Planning System (JMPS) is aviator planning software used by the US Navy and Air Force to plan aerial missions. Current operational versions of JMPS do not support multi-operator, multi-client collaborative mission development. Under this contract, Rep Invariant Systems will develop a design for adding collaborative mission planning capability to the next generation of JMPS. December 8, 2008
Rep Invariant Awarded Army Phase 1 SBIR

The Army has awarded Rep Invariant Systems, Inc. a Phase I SBIR contract for "Command and Control Translation System in a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) Framework." Under this contract, Rep Invariant will develop methods of "universal translation" for the Army Battle Command System (ABCS) version 6.4.

ABCS 6.4 consists of several linked, independently-developed software servers providing a variety of warfighting functions. The current ABCS, 6.4 "Good Enough", is widely deployed in Tactical Operations Centers around the globe. ABCS 6.4 was primarily designed for use by English-speaking US forces. In recent actions, foreign forces have frequently been embedded with US forces. ABCS has limitations that make it difficult to use with these Embedded Coalition Forces (ECFs)

Under this contract, Rep Invariant will develop a design employing Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) principles to solve four key problems: text localization, graphics localization, free-text translation, and security. The design relies primarily on COTS software solutions, adding only one full-custom software service. Critically, the design will leverage key properties of ABCS 6.4 to add ECF-facing services without modifying already-fielded ABCS software. May 26, 2008
