Communications forum
The Defence Materiel Organisation in conjunction with elements of the Capability Development Executive and Navy Systems Command will present the inaugural Maritime Communications Forum at the Australian War Memorial, Canberra, on November 28-29.
The forum will be managed and coordinated by the SEA 1442 - Maritime Communications Modernisation Program. The theme of the forum is maritime communications in the Network Centric Warfare (NCW) environment.
The forum will provide an environment for information sharing, discussions, and networking on contemporary issues in Maritime Communications, particularly as the Network Centric Warfare model assumes an increasing pre-eminence in the Australian, coalition, and global military context. Attendance at the forum is free, however travel and associated costs will be the responsibility of parent units.
The DMO intranet home page http://intranet.defence.gov.au/dmoweb/ contains a link direct to SEA 1442 page where you’ll find forum information and registration details. Registrations are essential and attendance is limited to Defence Service and civilian staff, and professional service providers who are working in Defence.
