FEATURED WHITE PAPER
Military Message Handling Systems: A Reference Architecture – Military Message Handling Systems (MMHS) have become established as the defacto way of exchanging high grade electronic messages within a national military enclave, between military domains and within operational domains. MORE DETAILS
FEATURED CASE STUDY
Upgrading an Existing System (A European Navy) - When you are using something that works well, you do not want to change it. Sometimes there is no choice – you need to address something as other factors change. MORE DETAILS
