36th international test and evaluation education symposium challenges for global threats

November 11-15, 2019 Located at the Pacific Missile Range Facility, HI

Global and regional threats are developing larger, more capable military forces. These adversary forces are armed with increasingly sophisticated weapon systems developed through incorporation of new technologies and new tactics. Some global threats have developed military capabilities that, in some areas, are on a trajectory to outpace those of the United States and allies. These more advanced threat systems are continuing to be improved in range, speed, lethality, stealth, and precision. As the United States and allies improve warfighting systems and capabilities to meet these global challenges, the test and evaluation (T&E) workforce and resources must be ready to more rapidly evaluate a systems suitability and effectiveness in representative complex environments. In some cases, increased use of simulation for testing will be crucial to complete early prototyping, analyze complex shortcomings, and maintain test security. The growing threat, new types of more sophisticated and flexible weapons, and advanced defensive systems will further complicate these tasks and will also challenge the T&E workforce. How will we meet these challenges? T&E for the United States and Coalition Partners must be ready to rapidly provide decision makers the data required to make critical decisions. How can we, as a team, maintain readiness to meet the upcoming T&E challenges and accelerate the development of solutions to global threats?

Join us and help us explore these ideas and others related to “T&E Challenges for Global Threats” as part of our 36th Annual International Symposium.

Dr. Mark Kiemele to give tutorial, track presentation and lead a panel discussion on Big Data.
