2008-07-15 09:50:00
OMAHA, Neb.–(EMWNews)–21st Century Systems, Inc. (21CSI) today
announced that its state-of-the-art High Resolution Situational
Awareness (HiRSA™) software system will
provide the surveillance and situational awareness information
technology backbone for the end-to-end Jordan Border Security Program
for which DRS Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:DRS) was recently selected. In
May 2008, it was announced that DRS Technologies, Inc., was chosen by
the U.S. Army’s Communications and Electronics
Command (CECOM) for the initial phase of the Jordan Border Security
Program.
“21CSI has a distinguished history of
providing decision support software and systems for the U.S. Department
of Defense,” said Jeffrey D. Hicks, chairman
and CEO of 21CSI. “The fact that DRS chose
21CSI’s HiRSA technology to support the border
security project in Jordan confirms our belief that this technology is a
strong differentiator with multiple applications in the defense and
commercial arenas.”
For over ten years, 21CSI has pioneered design, development and fielding
of agent-based decision support systems for time and mission-critical
applications for the U.S. Department of Defense. The HiRSA technology
will provide unique capabilities to help maintain the security of Jordan’s
border with Iraq.
HiRSA offers an integrated command and control framework for a number of
agent-based decision support products. Originally deployed with the
Marines in Fallujah, Iraq, in September 2004, HiRSA is an intelligent
command and control program that provides anti-terrorism/force
protection (ATFP) operators with a persistent surveillance capability
and a user-defined operating picture. It automatically evaluates and
distributes critical information, providing appropriate recommended
courses of action and alerts to ATFP operators and sentries.
“The use of this software has already been
proven in the field, protecting our military service people in Iraq by
reducing manpower requirements, while still receiving the information
needed and enhancing awareness while decreasing response time,”
continued Mr. Hicks. “This groundbreaking
software will fill a similarly significant need on the world’s
critical borders by maintaining a high-level of security while receiving
actionable knowledge and allowing limited personnel to respond to border
issues in a timely and appropriate fashion.”
21CSI develops decision support software to help operators manage
complex, high-stress, rapidly changing environments through sound,
computer-assisted data monitoring and decision making. Intelligent
agents embedded in the systems enable the software to adapt, respond,
and learn from individual users in a variety of different situations.
