For Example: XML Requires 10 -100 x More Bandwidth 10 x More ! Bandwidth 17 x More ! Bandwidth 22 x More ! Bandwidth 121 x More ! Bandwidth Makes net-centric web-services nearly impossible for tactical users 11

Efficient XML “POWER TO THE EDGE” 13

A New Approach to Data Optimization Information Theory Formal Language Theory Efficient XML a new breed of technology that unifies concepts from formal language theory and information theory 14

Efficient XML (EXML) Extends reach of XML to systems with limited resources EXML Limited Network Capacity XML EXML Limited Processing Capacity XML Small or embedded device Efficient XML enables more systems to share more information using a common, interoperable, widely adopted data standard Workstation Enables systems with limited bandwidth, memory, processing power and battery to use XML

Efficient XML (EXML) and improves CPU usage and scalability of existing systems EXML EXML Plenty of Network Capacity EXML EXML EXML EXML EXML Plenty of Processing Capacity EXML EXML Workstation EXML EXML Personal Computer … extends system lifetime and allows processing with cheaper, smaller systems EXML

Achieves New Levels of Performance • A quantum leap in XML bandwidth optimization • Simultaneously optimizes: • • Network bandwidth, throughput and scalability Server scalability, throughput and CPU utilization Device battery life, storage, heat and responsiveness Data center power consumption, heat, bandwidth • Requires no proprietary interfaces or protocols 369 33680 1% 17

Supports Most Demanding Applications • Works well where previous approaches failed (e. g. , high volume streams of small messages) • Tactical messages (VMF, TDL, IBS, GMTI, etc. ) • Track data • Sensor data • Extends Net-Centric Operations to far edge of network 17 to 23 x Larger! 44 to 62 x Larger!
