This AIAA Aerospace Perspectives Series webinar is hosted by AIAA and presented by Lockheed Martin.
Lockheed Martin is assembling an outstanding panel of industry and academic leaders to discuss taking edge computing technologies and capabilities to the tactical edge. Edge computing is a distributed computing topology where information processing is located close to the source of the information, bringing computation and data storage closer to the edge which is typically not done today. There are many commercial applications of edge computing and it is anticipated that there are a number of benefits to the defense battlespace. This webinar will seek to address what edge computing is – as it relates to defense applications, the defense capabilities that are enabled with edge computing, challenges and solutions associated with implementation, as well as defense-specific needs to successfully implement advanced computing capabilities at the tactical edge.
