Plug-and-play Analytical Framework for Distributed Structured and Unstructured Data Sets for Condition Based Maintenance Plus (CBM+)

The objective of this Project (Proposal Number N171-071-0558) is to build a decision-support platform that leverages disparate data sources and multi-sourced end user applications in order to impact Situational Awareness, Mission Readiness and decision-making across a variety of ship and shore-based activites. The focus of the project is the creation and validation of an underlying technology framework that can provide services capability across disparate functional areas of a ship such as in energy management, bridge functions, maintenance and safety, personnel management, and engineering.Using a Microservices and Containers based architecture, the software platform will aggregate operational, machine and human data to provide in-the-moment information, knowledge and support for users. Sharing currently unavailable data across software applications in the form of services offers a business process capability for the inclusion, testing and delivery of third-party applications (or apps) to plug into the framework.
