ASNE DAY 2002
TRANSFORMATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES FOR FUTURE NAVAL SYSTEMS
Hyatt Recency Crystal City, Alexandria, Virginia
29 & 30 April 2002

Presentations and Panel Discussion
Advanced Vehicle Concepts

There are numerous articles and speeches being given these days concerning both the commercial and military need for ships and craft that have a combination of high speed, high payload, and excellent sea keeping ability at both high and low speeds. These challenges are made even more demanding by concurrent requirements for low procurement and operating costs. ASNE is a technical society dedicated to assist its members and others in understanding the technologies and engineering aspects of meeting challenging requirements such as these. Join us on 29 April at ASNE Day 2002 and get first hand briefings, Q&A on available technologies that promise to meet these requirements. This session will be extremely valuable to operators, engineers, and program decision-makers. Don't miss it.

Plenary Session
Autonomous Warfare Systems for Littoral Ships and Craft

Autonomous vehicles are cited as part of the DoD transformation of the services. As our nation's maritime services concentrate on more dangerous missions in the world's littorals, small boats, submarines and mines are key threats. Autonomous Vehicles provide an opportunity for innovative solutions. Unmanned Undersea Vehicles (UUV) and Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USV) could be used in both US Navy and US Coast Guard ships of the future. There are key technology needs associated with both UUVs and USVs. In addition, these vehicles should be treated as key parts of an integrated shipboard weapon system to be fully effective. This potentially requires design concepts and hullforms that can easily launch and recover these vehicles, as well as integration into the C4I systems. Highly mobile, less expensive sensor/weapon packages could provide ways to implement current CONOPS and potentially provide flexible tailored capabilities for emergent threats.

Plenary Session
Electric Ship Concept - The Rest of the Story

The Navy has publicly declared their ships of the future will be all electric. This will not only enable electric propulsion but will provide the power capacity and flexibility to supply directed energy weapons, rail guns or other advanced sensors and weapons. This panel will explore the engineering challenges incumbent in adopting this revolutionary change in architecture from a variety of standpoints. This discussion will focus on architectures and systems engineering which, if done properly, will allow the incorporation of any candidate component technologies.
