ANSI representatives are participating in the 38th Annual Engineering & Technical Management Conference of the Government Electronics & Information Technology Association (GEIA) in Biloxi, Mississippi, September 13-17, 2004. This conference will address key standards and initiatives in data and configuration management, next generation systems engineering, and related topics that are intended to enhance integration through the total lifecycle systems management (TLCSM) process. These efforts are achieved via joint collaboration of the GEIA G-47 Systems Engineering and G-33 Configuration/Data Management committees. The conference will include familiarization training in CM & DM, displays and vendors, and workshop-style interaction with subject matter experts in the above disciplines.
