Performance and Scalability Research

Research designed by stakeholder committee and conducted by the George Washington University

Raw validation is time consuming but post-testing deployment can be done without significant impact on infrastructure with adherence to development guidelines

Conformance guidelines are sound and ensure best performance

Examples of conformant GJXDM Deployment

Maricopa County CJIS

Automation of arrest and booking information exchange serving multiple disciplines

Phoenix Police Department, Maricopa County Sheriffs Office, Maricopa County ICJIS and the Arizona Department of Public Safety

COTS Product Empowerment

Police and court case management software vendors adopt GJXDM as a no-cost standard offering

Non-compliant interfaces add extra cost

Industry View of GJXDM

Open standards such as XML and GJXDM will:– Radically reduce cost to governments– Reduce the risk to vendors– Expedite information sharing development– Increase customer satisfaction

Wide-spread adoption of XML-based exchange models is a national imperative
