PC Simulation and Evolution

JIL, a division of Allied Technology, is currently developing a PC simulation for the IT “A” School.  The simulation supports self-paced training in a schoolhouse environment.  When using the simulation, the learner will be able to progress through a series of screens selected in accordance with fault isolation.  These screens will contain graphics and animations relevant to the task they are performing, (i.e., the learner needs to be able to understand basic theory, normal operation, and fault isolation procedures.)  When the learner reaches the point where the fault was induced, an abnormal condition will be displayed.  The learner will then begin fault isolation and the simulation will allow them to perform component turn-off, removal, installation, and turn-on procedures.  Components able to be removed and replaced include: keyboards, mice, monitors, laser printers, and speakers.    The simulation will also allow the learner to rotate the PC in order to check to see if cables are inserted into the correct slot/socket or the computer is “plugged into” an electrical outlet.  The learner will be able to perform step-by-step system analysis, identify specific component malfunctions or failures, and interact with peripherals.  The learner will also be able to perform a mock removal and replacement of defective components and system wide operational checks.

Performance assessments have been incorporated into the simulation to test whether the learner has successfully completed the fault isolation. There will be one assessment for each fault within a lesson and they will be randomly chosen from the available scenarios for that fault. Assessments will be pass/fail based on correctly selecting the action to resolve the fault.


Allied Technology Develops Secure Website

Allied Technology developed a secure website for a federal agency to support controlled distribution of information regarding security incidents. The system makes use of state-of-the-art hardware and open source software to establish and maintain a secure, low cost, Internet-based system with minimal potential for a successful attack. In more than two years of operation, the site has not experienced a successful penetration.

 The secure website has facilitated improved incident response without a significant cost drain, a critical requirement with today's tight budgets. Further, the concepts and techniques used can be easily exported to other applications or agencies at minimal cost. Allied Technology's creation of the secure website demonstrates that it is possible to use the Internet for cost effective exchange of sensitive information.


Allied Technology Develops Secure Information Portals

Allied Technology is developing secure information portals for the Department of the Interior (DOI). Our effort is in support of a DOI initiative to make use of technology to expand access to the vast information holdings of the Department. The information portal will provide a tool thorough which information may be extracted from multiple databases and analyzed, regardless of the application or computing platform on which the data are stored.

Allied Technology is developing the DOI information portals as it also prepares guidelines for constructing similar portals using industry best practices. The portal technology will provide a common framework for secure, cost effective information exchange throughout the Department as well as with other entities that need access to DOI data.


Allied Technology Supports Agency Server Consolidation Efforts

Federal agencies have recently recognized that the proliferation of servers has created a more costly and less secure computing environment. Consequently, a number of federal agencies have initiated efforts to consolidate servers to improve security and reduce costs. Allied Technology is a leader in support of these efforts: for one agency, we are developing information portals that use "blade" technology to facilitate server consolidation. For another agency, we are helping develop a secure open source environment for an IBM zOS system and demonstrate the security, cost, and performance benefits of using "virtual servers" on a single physical enterprise over the current many independent servers approach.


Provider Of World-wide LAN/WAN Support

Allied Technology assists the U.S. Department of State with the design and installation of networks and Information Technology (IT) systems in every country of the world, at over 220 embassies and consulates.  We regularly have IT upgrades teams supporting IT needs on all continents of the world. Just recently, Allied Technology had LAN/WAN migration teams in Katmandu, Nepal, Ecuador, and Palau.  By the way, Palau was the location for the filming of the Survivor TV adventure series.  We upgrade and migrate LAN servers to Microsoft NT, we install hardware and software, we build domain controllers, and we migrate the embassy LAN/WANs into the Department of State regional network.


A Leading Provider Of Homeland Security Services

In days when the U.S. faces terrorists threats on a daily basis, the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) needs the latest and best command centers to ensure effective security operations 24/7/365.  Allied Technology is leading the effort to upgrade all USCG regional and district command centers.  We have integrated large, multi-presentation BARCO knowledge display walls in Coast Guard Command Centers.  These knowledge walls provide multiple displays of TV, video, photos, satellite images, Internet, MS PowerPoint presentation, etc., all at the same time, to provide an integrated and current/real-time view of the information needed for effective decision making.  These Command Centers are the front lines of America's homeland security efforts.  Allied Technology also provides highly trained operators, with current high level security clearances.  These operators are referred to as watch-standards, and they effectively operate these homeland security command center sites.  Additionally, we provide engineering and technical supporter services to all U.S. Coast Guard vessels and shore stations.


A Proven Record Of Effective National Disaster Response Support 

Allied Technology maintains the U.S. Coast Guard's Contingency Communications support program, also referred to as the Maritime Defense Zone program (MARDEZ).  Just recently, we provided the emergency portable communications radios and base stations to support preparation and disaster response efforts to mitigate the damages and hardships caused by Hurrican Dennis on the U.S. Gulf Coast earlier in 2005.  Additionally, we inventory, warehouse, and support thousands of units of communications equipment, and provide base-station support programming.  Typical past support tasks include recovery response support for the 9/11 World Trade Center attacks in New York, support for the Atlanta Olympics, support for the downing of TWA flight 800, and response to numerous natural disasters.


A Leader In Port Security Services

Allied Technology provides integration, upgrades, training, and maintenance support for our nation's Vessel Traffic Service (VTS).  This VTS is critical to our port security efforts, and helps significantly reduce the threat of accidents in and near our ports that can cause tremendous environmental damage.


Provider Of World-wide Navy Support

How to you keep the entire navy up-to-date on the latest C4I systems and tools in the Fleet?  It is Allied Technology's Fleet Systems Engineering Trainers (FSET), C4I trainers, that are around the globe right now providing training to our Naval war fighters on the seven seas.  For example, we have FSET C4I trainers on the USS TARAWA near Australia in the western Pacific.  We also have Allied Technology FSET C4I trainers on the USS Kittyhawk in the Sea of Japan, and we also have FSET Training personnel stationed in Naples Italy supporting the US fleet in the Mediterranian Sea.

To keep the strongest Navy in the world up-to-date technologically, Allied Technology performs Navy installations on the Tomahawk cruise missile system ATWCS, the Television TV-DTS, numerous communications systems, and we perform associated SOVTs and drawing support.
