End-to-End Applications and Algorithm Integration (E2A2I) Method and Architecture

Abstract

DoD manned and unmanned air systems require multiple mission phases, each with unique procedures, algorithms and checklists that are implemented through a variety of hardware and software mechanisms, all within the same mission. This approach is not efficient with respect to mission processing, staffing, and training. The End-to-End Applications and Algorithm Integration (E2A2I) Method and Architecture addresses this issue using a checklist application that receives a complete mission checklist for all mission phases (e.g., pre-mission, launch and recovery, on-mission, post-mission, and maintenance) from a data broker enforcement entity that has access to a data store. This data store contains many checklists in support of multiple diverse missions. The E2A2I application automatically executes the checklists, invoking other mission applications in order of their mission usage. The E2A2I application runs on a mobile computing device with software services that invoke one mobile application from another so that the same applications can be used in multiple mission phases and for multiple missions.
