Lockheed Martin and Wipro Technologies Open Network Centric Operations Centre in India

Lockheed Martin and Wipro Technologies, a division of Wipro Ltd, have announced the opening of a Network Centric Operations Centre in Gurgaon, India. Known as Ambar Jyoti, this lab will develop, demonstrate and experiment with emerging network-enabled capabilities and applications. Wipro and Lockheed Martin have committed to building this modeling and simulation experimental lab in India.

The center is designed to leverage Wipro's embedded telecom and enterprise expertise in creating data centric solutions for the future. Lockheed Martin and Wipro Technologies will utilize cutting-edge technologies and real environment emulation to develop net-enabled capabilities and solutions to employ against current, real-world problems.

Ambar Jyoti provides an opportunity for indigenous development and experimentation to spot future capabilities and requirements in network-centric operations for potential civil and military application.

"We are honored and pleased to be able to provide this capability in India," said Rick Kirkland, President South Asia LMGI. "Through this lab, together we will explore the 'art of the possible' and prepare for network-centric operations of the future."

"This experimentation and demonstration center is the first of its kind in India and we are proud to be a part of this initiative. We are certain that as a result of this project, the Indian market gets easier access to such advanced network centric based architectures and concepts," said Dr. A.L. Rao, COO of Wipro Technologies.

In the coming months, Lockheed Martin will network Ambar Jyoti with other such similar centers across the globe so that an increased number of more complex, real-time, real-world demonstrations can take place in this Indian facility.
