4. 4 Wireless Technologies: Connectivity Solutions for Law Enforcement Mobility advantages Reduction of infrastructure Ubiquitous interface Multiple platforms

5. 5 Data-mining Technologies Can information technology be used to help facilitate better decisions among law enforcement professionals? Artificial intelligence vs. expert systems Neural nets and decision making Best examples

6. 6 Broad Bandwidth Solutions Criminal justice investigative vs. record files Complex data issues Transmission through broad pipe solutions Memory and processing requirements Case solution benefits

7. 7 Natural Data and Sensors Video monitoring and facial recognition Acoustic sensor data Integration with text sources Profiling crime environments Next generation sensors

8. 8 Biotechnology and Criminal Justice Technologies DNA and other bio-identification technology “Iris” and other biometric data Prediction and biotechnology Next generation biotechnology

9. 9 Integration and Enterprise Architecture Solutions Scope of emerging technologies Integration models CITA funding source Changes in funding paradigm/strategy Stand-alone vs. enterprise software solutions Stove pipes within jurisdictions and across communities

10. 10 Integrated Justice CAD/RMS “end-to-end integration” Enterprise application integration Mobile access to LAN Regional integration Jail/booking/criminal history Law enforcement, prosecution, courts, corrections – model programs in every state Standards and models supported by US DOJ –XML is the global, enabling standard

11. 11 Critical Technology for Homeland Security – A Model for Justice Knowledge management/data mining Information sharing with layered security RISSNET/LEO integration Stronger authentication/biometrics Data repositories/warehouse/virtual databases

12. 12 Critical Technology for Homeland Security – A Model for Justice Collaboration and web portal technologies Simulation/modeling Middleware enterprise application integration (XML standards) Wireless interoperability

13. 13 Critical Technology for Homeland Security Challenges: Enter once, use electronically Integrity of databases Middleware, enterprise integration tools 22+ systems down to 1 or 2 (agencies in DHS) Architecture must be dynamic

14. 14 Developing Technology Knowledge management – data warehouse, text to data, data to graphics, analytical tools GIS Overhead imagery – space technology Security – providing for layered access “Communities of Interest” “Sensitive But Unclassified” – SBU Industry access to law enforcement and intelligence files Communications and interoperability

15. 15 Knowledge Management Applications Crime analysis (demo) Incident based reporting systems Jail management/security Investigative analysis tools – numerous Intelligence/information sharing systems Tech transfer – ONDCP/CTAC Web site www.epgctac.comwww.epgctac.com Homeland security drives massive tech development – see demo
