DMEA’s
ARMS’s strategy) to
the development of
researched
technology and the
long term support of
these technologies,
DMEA provides a
cradle to grave,
Total Life Cycle
Support Management
strategy for today’s
operational systems,
as well as future
weapons systems now
in the Development
Phase of their
program.
Due to our mission in
performing advanced
technology insertions
and our unique
partnership with the
semiconductor industry,
DMEA has a unique
perspective into
microelectronic
technologies required to
support current and
future DoD weapon
systems. Knowing the
type of technologies
that are incorporated
into current and legacy
systems, DMEA has
provided an ARMS
strategy to support
these systems. To see
into the future, our
partnership with the
Federal and Service
Labs, and our
partnership with the
semiconductor industry,
allows us to determine
what specific
technologies DoD will
need to adapt to today’s
challenges on the
battlefield, and address
manufacturing,
reliability, and
supportability concerns
today before they impact
operational systems; for
example, the reliability
concerns due to trends
in fine feature size
migration. DMEA is
‘looking around corners’
at the next generation
of concerns on various
physical semiconductor
wear out mechanisms that
could lead to
recommendations for a
Commercial Best
Practices Handbook for
Military Designers in
the future, is just one
example of how DMEA is
proactively bridging the
gap between research and
deployment in DOD
systems. |
