61st AOC INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM & CONVENTION, NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. Elma is showcasing its offerings in network connectivity and open standard computing solutions based on open standards like SOSA [Sensor Open Systems Architecture] that support the modular open systems approach (MOSA) at this week's 61st Annual AOC [Association of Old Crows] International Symposium & Convention. 

Available to ship in a short turnaround time, they are based on Elma’s CompacFrame chassis. 

This week’s product, the Elma Electronic CMOSS Modular Form Factor (CMFF) field-deployable chassis, comes with a tray compliant with the Standard A-Kit Envelope (SAVE) and is aligned with the Sensor Open Systems Architecture -- SOSA -- Technical Standard. The CMFF Chassis is designed for command, control, communications, computers, cyber, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C5ISR), electronic warfare (EW), and EO/IR applications.

NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. -- MOSA Industry & Government Summit & Expo. Military Embedded Systems is pleased to announce the winners of its Best In Show awards at this week's MOSA Industsry & Government Summit & Expo. 

Elma Electronic will be showcasing its latest developments based on open standards referred to in the MOSA [modular open systems approach] directive. Come see the latest deployable design for the Army’s CMOSS Mounted Form Factor (CMFF) program, and how we can accelerate RF development with Elma’s MORA Development Platform at Booth #120.

It’s been nearly three years since ratification of the Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA) Technical Standard 1.0 and its impact is being felt across the services as requests for SOSA aligned products are finding their way into program requirements. SOSA, an example of the modular open systems approach (MOSA) mandated by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), is also changing the way government leverages commercial technology and existing open standards like VPX. To learn more, I gathered a roundtable of SOSA Consortium members to discuss SOSA’s impact on the community, business practices, common misconceptions, and the future of what SOSA may look like five or 10 years down the road.
