Event Date: October 24-27, 2011
Event Location: Hyatt Regency Mission Bay, San Diego, CA
The primary objective of the annual Systems Engineering Conference is to provide insight, information and lessons learned into how we can improve the overall performance of defense programs via a better, more focused application of systems engineering that will lead to more capable, interoperable and supportable weapon systems for the warfighter, with reduced total ownership costs, to help our military meet its current and new Mission Area and Capabilities requirements. Technical and management presentations are a key tactic in achieving this objective. To this end, you are invited to submit a short (under 300 words) abstract of a presentation for a session. Abstracts must fully describe the planned content and how the presentations will advance the objectives of the conference and session. All accepted presentations will be delivered at the conference in electronic format; full papers are optional and are not required.
Expand the knowledge base of the S&T community in regards to available technologies.
