NEW YORK STATE’S: 

NEW YORK STATE’S . . . Creating Long Island’s Future

Slide2: 

. . . Creating Long Island’s Future EXCELLENCE IN SYSTEM ENGINEERING AND PRODUCT VALIDATION

Slide3: 

Mission Statement Create an environment for innovation by facilitating the convergence of research and technology in the public and private sectors of NYS on the issues facing the Country and the State in the Homeland Security area. This will be accomplished by establishing an industry led Applied Science Center of Innovation and Excellence, which will function as both a central node of the innovation network and as a virtual location for linking research development and testing assets with both users and enabling organizations / institutions. . . . Creating Long Island’s Future

Slide4: 

Examples of Applied Research are: Creating communication interoperability without buying new radios Intuitive, tailored, situational awareness and decision support for policy makers Providing just the right information to on scene commanders just in time and in an efficient / effective way Sensor placement as a function of cost and sensitivity How to evaluate, design, specify, purchase, accept, use and maintain technology products / systems . . . Creating Long Island’s Future

Slide5: 

Participants The proposed Center will include, as essential participants, New York State’s research and economic development units. These will include the members of the existing Centers of Excellence (CoEs) and Centers of Advanced Technology (CATs) and NYSTAR’s RTDC (Regional Technology Development Center - LIFT). It is vital that coordination with and use of the results of existing CoEs and CATs in nano structures/electronics, bio infomatics, photonics, environmental systems, wireless applications and information technology, be a fundamental mode of operation. . . . Creating Long Island’s Future

Slide6: 

. . . Creating Long Island’s Future The Center will focus on analyzing HLS user needs and available technology to create, test, integrate, select, buy and commission technology driven solutions / systems in the First Preventer and First Responder environment. Focus on the System Engineering process with emphasis on sensor and system / information optimization of operational and command requirements via modeling and simulation, rapid prototyping and field testing of critical system elements. This will be performed on commercial off-the-shelf, laboratory and classified technology via the Center’s independent evaluation team using a blend of Department of Defense and First Preventer / Responder methodologies.

Slide7: 

The Center The Center is a 65,000 sq. ft. facility expandable to over 100,000 sq. ft. Main computer and communications facility (backbone infrastructure) consisting of satellite (CBand, VSAT) all band terrestrial (for first responders) dedicated cell network, various fiber and wifi connections to fixed and mobile platforms Broadband satellite connections to CONUS Modeling and simulation lab and digital theatre with touch tables for use as an ultra high tech, flexible and agile command center Auditorium for user conferences with broadband capabilities to link with other enabling organizations as part of the Virtual Center . . .
