Digital Technology Infrastructure

The focus of DTI initiatives is to discover and accelerate the development of commercial digital infrastructure technologies such as telecommunications, storage, and computing to meet near-term and future defense and intelligence systems requirements. Specifically, emerging and future distributed computing and communication technologies will facilitate revolutionary approaches in designing and building future Defense and Intelligence systems. DTI technical challenge areas include:

• Deployable Command and Control: Engineer, implement, and transition into operational use technologies that provide significant capabilities for distributed and deployable command and control
• Mobile GeoInt Dissemination: Provide effective access and rapid dissemination of intelligence data to mobile first responders and national users in urban environments
• Digital Asset Management, Storage and Display: Provide timely access to large volumes of information in diverse environments
• Materials, Micro-electronics and Nanoscience: Support DoD/IC interests in properties of materials to support revolutionary advances in key infrastructure components such as storage, telecommunications, networking, computer processing, and displays
