Teen solves centuries-old math problem
SAN DIEGO, Feb. 13 (UPI) -- Northrop Grumman reports it will work on the second phase of the U.S. Navy project to deploy new tactical computing network systems aboard ships.
The new phase work on the Consolidated Afloat Networks and Enterprise Services project is worth $37 million and, if all options are exercised, brings the total value of work on the project for the company to $638 million.
The goal of CANES is to eliminate many legacy, standalone computing networks and install a common infrastructure for dozens of command, control, intelligence and logistics applications.
The Navy plans to deploy CANES on a destroyer this year.
"CANES will enable critical C4I capabilities with integrated, flexible cybersecurity capacity to quickly address evolving threats and missions using our adaptable information technology platform," said Linda Mills, corporate vice president and president of Northrop Grumman Information Systems.
Northrop said it is using its Modular Open Systems Approach-Competitive process for CANES, which allows commercial off-the-shelf components and software, helping to reduce costs.
