Applied Visions, Inc.(AVI) proposes to leverage the technology of computer games to provide a powerful new method of visualizing the potential movement of ground targets and threats for op-erators of the Tactical Tomahawk Weapon Control System (TTWCS). Recent advancements in the multi-billion… More

Applied Visions, Inc.(AVI) proposes to leverage the technology of computer games to provide a powerful new method of predicting and visualizing the potential movement of time critical moving targets for operators of the FCS and FFW networked effects nodes. Our research will build upon the results… More

Applied Visions, Inc. (AVI) is pleased to present this proposal for a Phase II follow-on effort to our Phase I work on Topic N04-231 "Display and Visualization of Movement Predictions for Ground Vehicles". The core of the problem to be solved is that of minimizing the area of uncertainty (AOU) for… More

Net-centric warfare places burdens on mission planners and commanders to understand dependencies, readiness, mobility, interoperability, and risk of cyber assets in addition to kinetic assets. They need to know "which computing assets are required for the success of the mission," "are there threats… More

A computer network is vulnerable to failure from many directions. Current work on vulnerability analysis focuses on computer network attack, in the form of viruses, malware, and hacking. However, the network is also vulnerable to failure from external forces, especially from the loss of… More

The Secure Decisions division of Applied Visions, Inc. proposes to fill a technology gap in determining how mission and client/host configurations can be analyzed and used to identify the impact of cyber attacks. We will develop an asset-to-mission model that represents the complex relationships… More

We propose to build upon our experiences in developing game-based simulation systems, conducting cognitive task analyses, and authoring product-specific training in the domain of information assurance and computer network defense (CND) to generate a top-level design and proof-of-concept prototype… More

In Phase I of this SBIR we have taken several significant steps in the development of a Cyber Assets in the Battlefield Network (CABN) system by identifying military and commercial use cases, developing and getting feedback on a variety of notional visual display mock-ups, and identifying commercial… More

Applied Visions, Inc. (AVI) proposes to develop an Adaptive Visualization of Safe Optimized Routes (AVIsor) - a tool that will assist route planners in identifying and visualizing safe convoy paths in the dynamic urban battlespace. AVIsor will build upon our work on a similar SBIR project sponsored… More

Applied Visions, Inc.(AVI) proposes to develop and build an interactive tracer for virtual objects (iTVO) - a tool that will provide analysts with a way to visually inspect and analyze the operation of software applications. iTVO is a software exploration environment that affords the user the… More

The Secure Decisions division of Applied Visions, Inc. proposes to fill a technology gap by placing cyber attacks within their mission context, providing much-needed Situational Awareness (SA) about the people, assets, and branches of an organization that are affected. We will enhance Computer… More

The goal of this effort is to develop a prototype training system that provides entry level Computer Network Defense (CND) analysts with the ability to learn fundamental concepts and practice their skills, within a compelling environment that offers network simulation and a gaming interface. The… More

Applied Visions, Inc. (AVI) is pleased to present this proposal for a Phase II follow-on effort to our Phase I work on Topic OSD08-CR4 "Dynamic Modeling of Safe Routes". Our concept is to build an Adaptive Visualization of Safe Optimized Routes (AVIsor). Our efforts leveraged work we are performing… More

Software is a mature discipline, yet more than 98 percent of all PCs have one or more vulnerable programs, and in the US there are 2.7 billion programs open for attack. Efforts to address the problem at the source --during software development--are shockingly inadequate, with many commercial… More

During Phase I we designed and built proof-of-concept prototypes of key iTVO components. In the Phase I Option period we will integrate those components into a single Phase I prototype that will be demonstrated to NAVAIR personnel to gather feedback. During Phase II, we will update and expand the… More

To increase confidence that software is secure, researchers and vendors have developed different kinds of automated software security analysis tools. These tools analyze software for weaknesses and vulnerabilities, but produce massive data with many false positives. Further, the individual tools… More

This project will develop a decision tool for Load and Route Evaluation for Dismounted Operations (LAREDO).
