Abstract:
In FY97, the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center ERDC initiated a technology demonstration program to determine the feasibility of providing deployed troops with direct access to subject matter experts SMEs. Direct access to SMEs allows responses to engineering challenges beyond the in-theater capability to respond, and allows them to be provided without the time delays and costs associated with deploying the SME to the theater. Shortly after being established, the TeleEngineering Operations Center TEOC initiated an effort to develop a secure, deployable communications package capable of video teleconferencing and data transfer. This report describes the components of the third generation of this package and the steps necessary to set up and operate the system. 63 figures
