Technology is the differentiating factor that has assured US prominence in the global arena.

Enhanced lethality with minimization of loss of life and collateral damage are all heavily reliant on

knowledge of the battlefield and precision target prosecution. Miniaturized and more capable sensors,

robots, high performance information processing and dissemination, and unmanned systems will

dramatically change the way that the we defend ourselves at home and abroad. This conference theme

highlights the impact of technology on our next generation systems and the technologies that will shape

the generation after next.

Theme: Transformational Technologies

ITARS ISSUES: The focus of the teleconference was to determine whether or not the GOMACTech Steering Committee wanted to classify the GOMACTech Conference as “ITAR Restricted” or “Export Controlled” effectively allowing or disallowing the participation and attendance of Canadian citizens. Even though the terms ITAR and Export Controlled are interchangeable, there is a major difference between the two terms. There is a Canadian Exception to ITAR (126.5). This effectively means that if the Steering Committee chose to classify GOMACTech as an ITAR Restricted Conference, then Canadians would be allowed to attend. On the other hand, if the Steering Committee chose to classify GOMACTech as an Export Controlled Conference, then the Committee could effectively create their own rules/framework and bar Canadians from attending the Conference. There was some concern among Committee members as to whether or not Canadians should be allowed to attend a conference where proprietary information was being presented. In addition, Northrop Grumman Corporation specifically stated that they would not be presenting at the conference if Canadians citizens were allowed to attend. At the end of the teleconference a vote was taken from the eight Committee members present and the results were as follows:·   6 SC Members voted for Export Controlled effectively baring Canadians from the Conference·   2 SC Members voted for ITAR, effectively allowing Canadians to attend the Conference  It was decided by the SC Committee to put this action into the By Laws and vote upon it when the By Laws are amended.
