This paper describes the problems DDS data-centric messaging technology was designed to address, including flexible deployment, performance and scalability, robust architecture, and secure communication. It was written from the perspective of a US Navy user, but the problems and solutions it describes are not specific to that environment.

Approaches and techniques to integrating large-scale systems and systems of systems.

Analysis of the requirements of these systems and how specific features of DDS  can be leveraged to integrate these large systems. 

This presentation introduces new research perform by RTI in collaboration with the University of Granada, Spain towards the development of a DDS-Router service that could be used to solve DDS's WAN deployment issues.
