Partnerships With Industry Can Exclude Small Businesses
Smaller companies complain of a closed culture.
By Diego Laje for SIGNAL Magazine
Good business professionals turn a rolodex into profits. Standing between buyer and supplier could be good for profits, but can add inefficiencies for smaller defense suppliers.
While the defense business has special considerations, as there are life-or-death consequences if all parties do not share full information, often only very large corporations enjoy the advantage of access.

AUSA 2024 PRODUCT ANNOUNCEMENTS
Different from multi-domain Red/Black systems, cross-domain systems (CDS) provide the gateway between highly secure, classified systems and insecure—often public—systems and networks. They offer higher levels of security than multi-domain, such as via data diodes for rules-based routing, and beefier crypto and sanitization for data-at-rest within storage devices. GMS has just announced four new systems: an airborne 3-domain CDS, two ground-based CDS systems, and a ¼ ATR OpenVPX-based CDS. Each CDS is based on the X9 distributed computing architecture.

GMS Assures Highly Secure Gigabit Battlefield Communications Between Secure, Classified and Insecure Comms Links with Four New Customizable Cross Domain Systems (CDS)
General Micro Systems (GMS) today announced four cross-domain systems (CDS), the culmination of decades of system-level experience with increasingly complex and secure systems. A recognized expert in defense communications, sensor processing, and data recorder systems, GMS brings it all together with these four new systems: an airborne 3-domain CDS, two ground-based CDS systems, and a ¼ ATR OpenVPX-based CDS. Each CDS is based on the X9 distributed computing architecture and delivers mission processing, secure storage and authentication, encryption, networking, and options for SATCOM, AI and data diodes.
X9 SPIDER DISTRIBUTED SYSTEM ADVANTAGE
The X9 SPIDER modular, scalable, distributed architecture simplifies applications that require rugged high-performance computing, high-definition video, sensor processing, artificial intelligence (AI) battlefield edge processing, storage, display, and I/O in a small, rugged enclosure. X9 SPIDER is modular, expandable or scalable, with Thunderbolt™ 4 technology and our patented LightBolt™ 40Gbps connections in copper or fiber, with optional 100W per port power for up-/down-stream sensors and system expansion.

X9 Spider Manpack
The World's Most Powerful Full-featured Wearable Computer for real-time tip-of-spear image and sensor processing.
PROUDLY MADE IN U.S.A.
All General Micro Systems, Inc. products are proudly designed and manufactured in the U.S.A. GMS servers are unique in the fact that we have developed our own server motherboards from the ground up and do not use any "off-the-shelf" internal components like our competition.
Ready for the Future Battlefield - Artificial Intelligence
The future battlefield will place reliance on artificial intelligence as a means to not only offload warfighter workload, but to improve the odds in our favor by using computers to think, act, and improve lethality. GMS’s optional modular graphics accelerator engines use GPGPUs (general purpose graphics processing unit) that perform AI and vector processing.
These engines are capable of performing extreme video, vector, data mining, augmented reality and algorithm processing. These capabilities might be exceptionally useful when taking incoming high resolution sensor video information by performing automatic target identification, recognition, IFF (identification friend or foe), DVE (degraded visual environment) or other massive data set processing with image processing/enhancement. In small form factor (SFF) systems, GMS believes the IGP (Intel) embedded processing built into most of our systems can be supplemented by optional modular graphics accelerators to provide an unheard of video and sensor processing in an industry-leading small size package.
Our Mission
Since its inception in 1979, General Micro Systems, Inc. (GMS) has been true to its mission statement: To Become the World’s Leading Technology Independent Supplier of Computing Engines, while Providing the Best Price/Performance, Quality and Customer Support, Demanded by Our Current and Our Future Customers.
