REGISTER – MOSA Alliance Flyer w_Reg Link

The modular open system approach (MOSA) is a practical and necessary
acquisition and engineering strategy to achieve plug-and-play type of
interoperability across conforming systems. MOSA will enable the Department of
War (DoW) to deploy new technologies more rap- idly to our warfighters and better
leverage combined Enterprise and ally assets for mission operations. MOSA
Interoperability Standards standardize key system interfaces, which enable all the
plug-and-play benefits, significantly:
-Increased competition without vendor lock-in
-Greater system software reuse
-Accelerated integration testing
-Mitigation of parts obsolescence
-Better enablement for new entrants to compete in an established market.

MOSA Interoperability Standards help provide a wider range of capabilities for our
warfighters by promoting a larger industrial base. The ISTO Space Systems MOSA
Interface Standards Alliance has pioneered agile and digital engineering methods to
accelerate the development of voluntary consensus interoperability standards.
This webinar will feature presentations and demonstrations on the agile and digital
engineering methods used successfully by our committees to develop MOSA
Interoperability Standards and enable rapid MOSA implementation in space systems.
