DARPA seeks technologies for network-enabled, strategic collaboration for disaster recovery and relief operations
HARRISON, Maine, 11 June 2007.Strategy X Inc., a team of global performance-based risk mitigation specialists, reports that the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is seeking innovative ideas and concepts that can advance the area of strategic collaboration, according to a request for information issued by DARPA.
The agency wants interested individuals and organizations to submit white papers on technologies and concepts that could form the basis for a DARPA program to develop a network-enabled collaborative environment. Ultimately, the networked environment would bring together large numbers of people with different experiences, cultures, and expertise to address the complex problems of large-scale disaster recovery and relief operations.
According to Strategy X experts, true solutions are uncovered with the ability to test a security system against today's threats or catastrophes by applying mathematic and scientific methods. More importantly, applying this performance approach is the best method of designing a security system, identifying each system weakness, and proving the merit of the solutions before the installation.
Performance professionals at Strategy X Inc. believe they have the means to mitigate threats and minimize damage from an actual incident.
"Our process is executed to determine the most viable solution to mitigate risk and maximize performance," says a company representative. "The result is a quantifiable solution, providing the most efficient use of technology, forces, and procedures. The end result is a robust solution maximizing critical funding."
