VMASC & HREDA DEMO AT I/ITSEC 2011

VMASC & HREDA DEMO AT I/ITSEC 2011

Dec 2011

In late November, VMASC participated in the 2011 I/ITSEC Conference hosted at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. With many industry members participating and exhibiting, VMASC was represented by faculty and staff members on-hand to demonstrate & discuss M&S research in the following focus areas: Transportation, Homeland Security & Military Defense, and M&S Interoperability. Members of Old Dominion University's MSVE Department also attended to inform participants about the University's varied M&S degree options and expertise.

Once again, it was VMASC’s honor to partner with the Hampton Roads Economic Development Alliance (HREDA) to co-host the 4th annual I/ITSEC Hampton Roads Reception in Orlando, which drew M&S leaders from industry, government and academia.

VMASC was also a proud sponsor of the Serious Games Showcase & Challenge. The purpose of the showcase & challenge is to "identify innovative game based solutions to problems that could affect the military both today and in the future".

This event and the I/ITSEC conference certainly illustrate the strong regional partnerships that exist among M&S companies in Hampton Roads as well as our dedication to advancing M&S and supporting economic development within the region, the Commonwealth, and nationally.
