U.S. Army C5ISR Center Combined Joint Systems Integration Laboratory (CJSIL) Virtual Open House

**********  UPDATE *****************TITLE:  Save the Date:  U.S. Army C5ISR Center Combined Joint Systems Integration Laboratory (CJSIL) Virtual Open House – REPLAY – July 14, 2022DESCRIPTION:  The CJSIL Virtual Open House was originally held on May 5, 2022.  This “Save the Date” is for the purpose of announcing the CJSIL Virtual Open House REPLAY during which the original CJSIL VOH Recording will be played.  Refer to the Additional Details below for REPLAY Registration and Security Clearance instructions.ORIGINAL DETAILS: The DEVCOM Combined Joint Systems Integration Laboratory (CJSIL) is an important connection point at the nexus of Army and Joint Service experimentation, enabling greater collaboration for better solutions that will allow tactical dominance for our Warfighters during multi-domain operations (MDO). The CJSIL organizationally falls under the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM); Command, Control, Communications, Intelligence, Surveillance,

Reconnaissance (C5ISR) Center and is located at Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD.  The CJSIL serves as the network hub in support of the C5ISR Center’s Live/Virtual/Constructive experimentation environments.  The primary function of the CJSIL is Lab Based Risk Reduction for Science & Technology (S&T), C5ISR System Integration, and emerging industry and academia technologies.  Each lab experimentation environment provides transport, access to remotely-connected Army and Joint network nodes, at multiple classification levels for both event and on-demand purposes. Industry often hears about the CJSIL via media, senior leader comments, and other means, and we receive many inquiries from industry about how to get involved and connect. The purpose of the virtual open house is to provide a way to address these inquiries in an efficient manner without the burden of individual tours and on-site engagements. This open house will provide an overview of what the CJSIL is, its current capabilities, and our planned future capability roadmap for the lab infrastructure. We will also cover the mechanisms for partnership including (1) potential to help us refine the capability roadmap based on industry technology offerings, (2) potential for Cooperative Research and Development Agreements (CRADA) efforts that could leverage the CJSIL, and (3) potential for Test Service Agreements (TSA) that could provide industry with access to lab capabilities on a reimbursable basis. We will specifically not be discussing details about the CJSIL’s role in PC22 or any PC22-related technologies or use cases.The CJSIL was stood up at the beginning of Fiscal Year 2021 with its primary mission in direct support of risk reduction for Army Future Command’s Project Convergence.  The lab continues to build upon this foundational mission with its stakeholders including Science & Technology (S&T) developers, DEVCOM Enterprise Experimentation, Army Cross Functional Teams, and Joint and multi-national partners,   The goal of this CJSIL Virtual Open House (Replay) is to inform industry on the mission of the CJSIL, overview existing capabilities within the laboratory, and discuss new capabilities the CJSIL is exploring for the laboratory.  Additionally, the event will overview how technologies are incorporated into experimentation performed at the CJSIL, including how and with whom vendors can engage/propose technologies for experimentation.As the CJSIL builds upon its core experimentation environment capabilities, the CJSIL is interested in expanding its laboratory capabilities related to, but not limited to:Advanced networkingCloud computing environmentsCyber security for laboratory and cloud environmentsData analytics for networking experimentationNetworking modeling & simulation (M&S)Server environmentsVirtualization environments / Automated deploymentDevSecOpsIn addition to collaboration with Army, Joint, and Coalition partners, the CJSIL collaborates with private industry through several Technology Transfer initiatives.  These include Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR), Small Business Technology Transfer (SBTT), CRADAs, TSA, and Patent License Agreements (PLA).The CJSIL Virtual Open House Replay will include:Introductions (15 minutes)Experimentation Overview – Panel DiscussionPresentations (30 minutes)Lab Experimentation StrategyCJSIL OverviewCJSIL Path ForwardHow Industry can get engagedQ & A Session (15 minutes)Technical Deep Dive – Panel DiscussionPresentations (60 minutes)Experimentation FloorsCurrent CapabilitiesFacility ConnectivityData Collection and AnalysisModeling And SimulationFuture Technologies / CapabilitiesQ & A Session (20 minutes)ADDITIONAL DETAILS:The exchange of information, at the original Open House/MS TEAMS Live Event was held at the CUI level.  Clearance requests are a mandatory component of the REPLAY registration process.  Clearance requests MUST be submitted no later than 5:00pm EDT on July 8, 2022, to participate at the REPLAY event.  Additional details related to security requirements will be provided at the registration site.Registration is now Open.  A registration form is accessible from the C5ISR Center: http://events.constantcontact.com/register/event?llr=xqgmzawab&oeidk=a07ej8dz62r02954b74.  All prospective attendees must Register to have access to the Replay event.  In addition to Registration, participants must submit security clearances via the DEFENSE INFORMATION SECURITY SYSTEM (DISS):  SMO Name, SMO Code, and POC are provided with the registration form on the C5ISR Center/Constant Contact Web site.  Registration and Clearance Requests will close Friday, July 8, 2022 at 5:00 pm EDT.  Details are provided on C5ISR Center/Virtual Open House registration Web site. Special note to attendees:The U.S. Army reserves the right to cancel and/or change session event times, dates and locations under certain conditions. These conditions usually include, but are not limited to: inclement weather, event venue cancellation or rescheduling, speaker cancellation or rescheduling, and insufficient number of participants for the event. The U.S. Army reserves the right to cancel the event for any reason up to and including the day of the event.  In the event that the U.S Army must cancel the event, the U.S. Army will not be responsible for costs incurred in preparation.  If the event is cancelled, the notice will be posted on this website and an email will be sent to all registered participants.****************************************************************PREVIOUSTITLE: Save the Date:  U.S. Army C5ISR Center Combined Joint Systems Integration Laboratory (CJSIL) Virtual Open House, May 5, 2022DESCRIPTION:The DEVCOM Combined Joint Systems Integration Laboratory (CJSIL) is an important connection point at the nexus of Army and Joint Service experimentation, enabling greater collaboration for better solutions that will allow tactical dominance for our Warfighters during multi-domain operations (MDO).
