Mr. Clark's topic will cover building data management solutions for real-time, mission critical intelligence fusion and scientific applications. He will review the solutions for agencies that need to store and manage very large volumes of complex data for event and relationship processing within these applications. Solutions presented will enable government agencies to collect and process ever-increasing quantities of data from a growing number of sources to understand complicated inter-relationships and recognize patterns, transforming small clues into major breakthroughs. Objectivity's Success in the Government The company attributes its continued success to the growth and adoption from the expanding security and intelligence markets that benefit significantly from the Objectivity/DB platform. Many of Objectivity's government customers are performing data fusion Data fusion, is generally defined as the use of techniques that combine data from multiple sources and gather that information in order to achieve inferences, which will be more efficient than if they were achieved by means of a single source. from geospatial and sensor data. Others are storing and correlating vast amounts of disparate information such as text, images, video and voice for investigation or security and intelligence applications. Additional government agencies where Objectivity has experienced significant success include the Department of Defense (DOD (1) (Dial On Demand) A feature that allows a device to automatically dial a telephone number. For example, an ISDN router with dial on demand will automatically dial up the ISP when it senses IP traffic destined for the Internet. ) and the Department of Energy (DOE), which has built the world's largest database, exceeding 895 Terabytes of information stored in Objectivity/DB.
