Dear Colleagues,

It is with great pleasure I invite you to join us at Interoperable Open Architecture 2016. I look forward to participating in what promises to be a strategically important tri-service event.

As Director of the Vetronics Research Centre (VRC) at the University of Brighton specialising in Military Vehicle Electronic Architectures for the last 15 years, I am very much aware of the challenges that we are facing in terms of future capabilities requirements, timing and economic constraints.

Years of research and development and lessons learned in defence during peace and war times, alongside significant achievements in civilian approaches, present us with an opportunity to rapidly advance our future capabilities in an efficient and effective manner, opening the door to a more inclusive market, new solutions and cost-effective solutions.

We should embrace this opportunity and use it by “talking the same language” so as to have a coherent approach to capabilities development through standardisation and international cooperation. NATO Generic Vehicle Architecture (NGVA), LAVOSAR I and II, Joint Common Architecture (JCA) and European Component Oriented Architecture (ECOA) are firm examples of this approach leading the way forward.

These are just some of the programmes that will be discussed at the most internationally diverse forum to date including presentations from the US, UK, Finland, Germany, Spain, United States and many more.

With this in mind, I very much look forward to welcoming you to London in April and sharing this experience with you.

Best Wishes,

PROFESSOR ELIAS STIPIDIS, DIRECTOR, VETRONICS RESEARCH CENTRE
