Using existing, government-open tools, Mr. Hellwig will discuss methods and approaches for evaluating and effecting modern, complex spectrum battlespaces as well as methods and approaches for implementing “real world” distributed collaboration and autonomy to allow for the employment of hybrid manned and unmanned swarms across the physical and invisible battlespace domains.
