Telecommunications Systems Engineering - Our
telecommunications engineers have a breadth and depth of experience enabling
end-to-end support of communications over diverse physical media and networking
protocols for both broadband and narrowband systems. These systems often have
unique requirements beyond those expected of typical commercial systems.
System Administration -
Our system administrators have established an
infrastructure consisting of UNIX and Windows platforms in support of
MITRE's technical programs including direct projects, MITRE-Sponsored
Research (MSR), and Mission-Oriented Investigation and Experimentation
(MOIE). In addition, our system management team provides installation
services and consultation on the configuration and management of UNIX
and Windows platforms to other internal departments and special
interest groups.
System Lockdowns -
Our system administrators have developed installation and management
procedures to maintain and monitor the security of the systems we
manage on the MITRE DMZ network.
Linux Clusters -
Our distributed systems engineers have developed clusters of
standalone and tightly networked Linux machines to provide a high
performance computing environment.
Utility Computing -
Our system management team has developed and implemented processes
that allow us to provide rapid turnaround desktop and server
provisioning.
Storage Area Networks -
Our storage team has built a massive
networked storage farm that is easily reapportioned,
quickly enlarged, and shared by all our servers.
Network File Systems -
Our system administrators are experts at deploying and ensuring reliable
access, data consistency and security to such distributed file systems
as the Common Internet File System (CIFS), Network File System (NFS),
and the AFS File System (originally known as the Andrew File System).
Batch Processing -
Our distributed systems engineers have implemented systems for
load balancing, managing resources,
scheduling, and maintaining security for compute-intensive applications.
