Trans-enterprise Information Exchange

1. Trans-enterpriseInformation Exchange Systems Engineering Department 6444 C5I Information Management Architecture

2. Objective To communicate: • Why Trans-enterprise Information Exchanges (TIEs) are needed • National TIE characteristics • Enabling TIE using SOA and EDXL • Trans-enterprise Services Grid (TSG) Summary and Conclusions

3. The Bigger Picture • National Incident Management System (NIMS) • HSPD 5 and HSPD 8 • National Response Plan (NRP) • Emergency Support Functions (ESF) • Executive Order 13407 • “Establish or adopt, as appropriate, common alerting and warning protocols, standards, terminology, and operating procedures for the public alert and warning system to enable interoperability and the secure delivery of coordinated messages to the American people through as many communication pathways as practicable” • “Consult, coordinate, and cooperate with the private sector, including communications media organizations, and Federal, State, territorial, tribal, and local governmental authorities, including emergency response providers, as appropriate” • 9/11 and Katrina Lessons • “Employ all available 21st Century technologies both to update and utilize the national Emergency Alert System in order to provide the general public with advanced notification of and instruction for disasters and emergencies” • “Ensure situational awareness by establishing rapid deployable communications as well as instituting a structure for consolidated Federal operational reporting to the Department of Homeland Security”

4. CONTEXT: LEGISLATIVE & HISTORICAL

5. CONTEXT: LEGISLATIVE & HISTORICAL THE NATIONAL RESPONSE PLAN (NRP) IS INTENDED TO DRIVE EMERGENCY OPERATIONS PLANNING FOR ALL FEDERAL DEPARTMENTS/AGENCIES AND ALL STATE/LOCAL AGENCIES THE NATIONAL INCIDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (NIMS) IS INTENDED TO INTEGRATE ALL NATIONAL CAPABILITIES TO ACHIEVE EFFECTIVE, EFFICIENT RESPONSES AT ALL SCALES AND TO ALL INCIDENTS

6. CONTEXT: SCOPE

7. CONTEXT: SCOPE AT SOME POINT, ALL OF FEDERAL AGENCIES AND PARTNERS WILL CONNECT SOME PORTION OF THEIR CAPABILITIES TO THE NIMS IN ADDITION, “Trans-enterprise Information Exchanges” – WILL BECOME THE MECHANISM FOR AQCCOMPLISHING THE NIMS CAPABILITY

8. SITUATION ASSESSMENT • THE NRP & NIMS ARE BROAD SCOPE DOCUMENTS THAT LEAVE MUCH TO THE IMAGINATION AND ARE STILL EVOLVING • Few "Belly Buttons" Identified • Situation Dependent Interpretations • General Principles – Details Left to Later Plans • Federal Document, but Most Implementation is State/Local Responsibility • HURRICANE KATRINA SHOWED BIGGEST GAP IS INFORMATION SHARING AND COMMUNICATIONS (and associated knowledge & decision management) • NIMS "Mandates" Interoperability, but Doesn't Say Who or How • NIMS "Mandates" Single Point of Coordination, but Leaves the Process to Situation Dependent Decisions • THE ONLY TANGIBLE SOLUTION IS TO USE COMMON COMMUNICATION PROCESSES AND DATA SCHEMAS • Currently SOA is onlyfeasible approach to creating TIE Solutions • A Grid of Services is need to create the TIE capabilities

9. Characteristics of Trans-enterprise Capabilities • Trans-enterprise Services Grid (TSG) is new term to capture the required characteristic of information exchanges capabilities • Trust Management • All entities trust other Enterprises for required emergency data • TSG capabilities are trusted to enable exchanges between Enterprises • Non-Repudiation of originator of information being exchanged • Negotiation of Exchange Contracts • Automate business processes • Dynamic choreography based on data exchange metadata • Secure Reliable Information Exchange Services • Pre-event discovery services (Publish/Subscribe) • Core Community of Interest (COI) exchange and inter-COI routing services • Mediation service • Auditing Service • Performance enabling services • Protection of Enterprise and Grid Resources • Identification, authentication, and access control mechanisms

13. How does TSG support NIMS • An emerging Federal, State, Local, Tribal and public-private partnership to share information about common interests across agency enterprises/jurisdictions • TSG supports delivering information (Push) about: • Changes in the real world environment (e.g. CBRN, NOAA) • Response guidance from appropriate decision authority (Warning and Response coordination) • TSG supports developing Situational Awareness and Decision Support (Pull) about: • Course of Action (COA) development for all levels of government • National Disasters, Pandemics, CBRNE Attacks, etc. • TSG enables Customized Operational Pictures (COP) based upon common shared data • Right Information, Right Person, Right Time to prevent/mitigate effects of national threats both natural and man-made
