'''MilCAN''' is a deterministic [[Protocol (science)|protocol]] that can be applied to [[Controller Area Network]] (CAN) technology as specified by [[ISO 11898]]. MilCAN has been defined by a group of interested companies and government bodies associated with the specification, manufacture and test of [[military vehicle]]s.
The MilCAN [[working group]] was formed in 1999 as a sub-group of the International High Speed [[Bus (computing)|Data Bus]] - Users Group (IHSDB-UG) when a need was recognised to standardise the implementation of CANbus within the military vehicle community. The [[mission statement]] of this group was “To develop, for various application classes in all military vehicles, a common [[Network interface controller|interface]] implementation specification based on CANbus”.
Although initially developed for the military land systems domain, MilCAN may be applied wherever there is a requirement for deterministic [[Data transmission|data transfer]].
Meetings of the MilCAN work group are held about every six months, and are hosted by one of the group members.
