COMMERCE BUSINESS DAILY ISSUE OF MAY 20,1996 PSA#1598

INTELINK INDUSTRY CONFERENCE Contact Point, Kathleen Helm, 703/631-6238. In conjunction with the Intelligence Systems Board/Intelligence Systems Secretariat (ISS), AFCEA International is proud to present the second Intelink Industry Conference on June 18-20, 1996, in the Dean Acheson Auditorium, Department of State, Washington, DC. This extraordinary professional development event will bring together government, military, and industry in a forum for sharing information on Intelink, the paradigm that is revolutionizing the way the Intelligence Community conducts business. Intelink has been in operation for nearly two years since its inception as a testbed. It is both an architectural framework and an integrated intelligence dissemination and collaboration service providing uniform methods for exchanging intelligence among providers and users. The Intelink framework conforms to the future direction of the National Information Infrastructure (NII). Intelink was patterned after the Internet model in which a variety of institutions have come together in the context of a global network to share information. This conference has been planned for those (government, military, and industry) already using or supporting Intelink and for those wanting to learn more about the capability, technology, and opportunities it represents. Attendees will learn about Intelink issues and plans, stay current relevant future technologies, and discover opportunities to participate. The conference will include keynote addresses from both industry and the ISS, as well as industry presentations on the following: Java. A status update on Java technology and discussion on products that will enable the Intelink community to construct and utilize Java applets. Collaboration/Group Work. A one-half day session on desktop collaborative computing tools and group work products, such as whiteboards, audio teleconferencing, video teleconferencing, virtual rooms (MUD/MOO), electronic meeting software, electronic mail, chat, and shared applications. Electronic Publishing. A one-half day session on electronic publishing and presentation software products as well as more traditional electronic and desktop publishing tools that produce products that can be viewed with Web browsers. Browsers and Search Engines. A one-half day session on browsers and search engine products that permit Web users to efficiently access information on Intelink. Indexing schemes and products will also be discussed during this session. Security. A one-half day session on security products that protect the integrity of both information products on the Web and of the transactions between Intelink users as they conduct business on Intelink. User identification and authentication products and encryption products will also be discussed. Industry Futures Forum. A two-hour session at the end of the conference will allow selected industry leaders to present their views on where Web technology is heading and to speculate on its importance to and impact on Intelink. Discussions in each of the program sessions will be led by representatives from some of the top companies in the field of World Wide Web and Internet technology. Many will have on-site demonstrations, so you can hear the experts...and then see their products work. Interested in exhibiting? Call 703-631-6238.
