  18. Trident Warrior 14 • TW is a Naval Warfare Development Center’s Fleet Experimentation Program that provides a field assessment of emerging technologies in a real-world operational environment. • Purpose: Identify APANLite’scapability for USN ships to functionally consume & share unclassified none-PKI information while underway transiting from San Diego to Hawaii for RIMPAC 14. • Prior to at-sea test, APAN Lite was tested & passed a Risk Reduction Lab environment (Jan 2014) • TW 14 Test Plan included • Two DDGs (USS SPRUANCE and USS SAMPSON) • 6 days in addition to limited testing on FFG (USS Gary) (1 day)

  19. Trident Warrior 14 “... As a test performance benchmark, the full APAN (both Zimbra and SP) site actions and clicks responded approximately two times, to as much as ten times longer than the Lite sites. This was an important fact in demonstrating how much faster APAN Lite performed, and validating the need for an APAN Lite type functionality, or an APAN experience which can meet the current APAN Lite performance or response times within an maritime environment.” TW Test Coordinator • APAN functional & user acceptance test plans were organized to reflect the most common uses of APAN communities observed in over 100+ APAN COI’s: authenticating, downloading / uploading files, chat, translating in chat, and viewing/consuming information • Transit Phase - Results validated APAN Lite for use in the shipboard environment -- Much faster and more efficient than the full version of APAN

This capability allows personnel operating in remote areas who require one-way transmission of information to an identified source through peer-to-peer SMS messaging to achieve their goals. Normally, this capability would be set up in a designated Area of Responsibility (AOR) to support those in the field and enable them with the ability to send information back to their multinational support center

  29. APAN Forms APAN users who require customized, structured information from mobile & web users operating in D-DIL environments. • APAN is currently testing an APAN Forms • capability in both a loosely-coupled & • integrated architecture. This capability would • provide following to APAN users and groups: • Mobile app or Web interfaces • Custom built forms & assessments (i.e. ETU details, patient assessments, JCIMS assessments, SITREPS, RFA, etc.) • Analytical capabilities • Geolocation of submitted forms • Supports Users in D-DIL environments
