The International Technology Alliance (ITA) is a research program initiated by the UK Ministry of Defence (United Kingdom) (MoD) and the US Army Research Laboratory (ARL). The research program is intended to run for 10 years (2006-2016). Its full name is United States/United Kingdom International Technology Alliance in Network and Information Sciences. There is an internal Annual Conference of ITA (ACITA) series that provides a forum for researchers participating the ITA project to present and share their scientific findings.

abstract
  • The International Technology Alliance (ITA) is a research program initiated by the UK Ministry of Defence (United Kingdom) (MoD) and the US Army Research Laboratory (ARL). The research program is intended to run for 10 years (2006-2016). Its full name is United States/United Kingdom International Technology Alliance in Network and Information Sciences. The program is a combination of country-specific research programs that were run by ARL and MoD respectively. The ARL ran several programs called Collaborative Technology Alliances (CTAs) and the MoD ran equivalent programs. The CTAs programs are run for the duration of 3–5 years, and usually involve a consortium of industrial research laboratories and universities to team together to solve research problems in a specific domain. The International Technology Alliance differs from the CTAs primarily in the fact that its scope is international, and spans two countries, the United States and the United Kingdom. Thus, the alliance consists of researchers from ARL and MoD working together with several UK and US based industries and universities to solve several fundamental research problems. ITA is focused on performing research in four technical areas (i) network theory focusing on wireless and sensor networks (ii) security across systems of systems focusing of solving security issues that arise when two different networks need to interoperate (iii) sensor information processing and delivery focusing on issues involving sensor network information management and (iv) distributed decision making and coalition planning focusing on how humans from different countries use the network to make informed decisions. The research work in ITA is fundamental in nature, and the goal is to perform public domain research by means of published papers. The restriction of research to fundamental research was done in order to avoid running into any issues related to ITAR which often arise in work focused on or sponsored by the armed forces of a country. The ITA group established in 2006 consists of 24 members from US and UK industries and universities (in addition to the ARL and MoD), and is led by IBM Research. One of the academic members of ITA is Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute with Principal Investigators James Hendler and Boleslaw Szymanski. There is an internal Annual Conference of ITA (ACITA) series that provides a forum for researchers participating the ITA project to present and share their scientific findings.
