Abstract:"As the number and range of interface technologies increases, the personal experience and expertise of human computer interaction (HCI) designers is often insufficient to ensure that wide ranges of innovative interface options are considered during design.This limited experience could slow down the… more
Abstract:"Traditionally, the military intelligence analyst has been able to focus on a known enemy within situations that are relatively comprehensible. Uniforms, military equipment, and communication patterns, to name a few, could identify the enemy. However,increasingly the United States Army faces a new… more
Abstract:"The Navy is under pressure to reduce staffing levels on its combat ships. However, current displays are designed to support single-functions, which makes it difficult to reduce manning without limiting the crew's ability to perform the current number ofcombat functions. New multi-function… more
Abstract:"The Army is in the process of transforming itself from the Legacy Force of today to the Objective Force of the future. The Objective Force will have a new organization, new training techniques, new combat systems, and new ways of conducting warfare.Therefore new selection criteria and procedures… more
Abstract:"Synthetic environment exercises are a critical component in the DOD's strategy for testing CONOPS, training soldiers, and evaluating equipment. Communication is a vital component of these exercises, and communications data is a valuable information sourcefor AAR facilitation. However,… more
Abstract:"Gaming technologies offers flexibility not possible with classroom-delivered training and enable instructors to train more students faster. Instructional games offer the strong potential to increase understanding and retention of learning materials andengage and motivate learners.To maximize… more
Abstract:"Planing hull craft pose unique safety challenges. The Mark V Special Operations Craft, for instance, carries Special Operations Forces in littoral waters and travels at very high speeds. Failure to adequately negotiate wave conditions may result ininjury to the crew and damage to the craft. The… more
Abstract:"The fast pace of technological change has pushed military procurement into a design environment in which traditional evolutionary design methods no longer satisfy the need to take advantage of the new functionality that is now emerging. No aspect of thisnew demand is more taxing than the design for… more
Abstract:"The goal of this work is to develop Teamwork Training and Remote Assessment in a Networked Environment (T-TRANE), a web-enabled scenario-based teamwork skills training program for distributed teams. In Phase I, using applicable research on team theory andscenario-based team training, we developed… more
Abstract:"Simulation-based training is a promising instructional tool for training first responder military and civilian emergency personnel but its growth and adoption into practical use in training programs has been significantly hindered by the lack ofvalidation. We will address this challenge through… more
Abstract:"Aptima and Knowledge Analysis Technologies will create a training system for DGS intelligence analysts. The system will leverage an innovative assessment technology: Latent Semantic Analysis. The system, called the Analyst's Analyst will:¿ Assess knowledge and skills that constitute Mission… more
Abstract:"Research on framing suggests that an individual's decisions about medical treatments can be affected by whether the information about the impacts of alternative treatments are framed positively (in terms of benefits) or negatively (in terms of risks). Thegoal of this project is to develop a… more

Abstract:"The focus of this proposal is to develop a system that is responsive to the needs of military leaders in developing and maintaining high performance, multinational teams. In Phase I we will define requirements for a scenario-based assessment and trainingsystem. The system will be derived from a… more
Abstract:"The surface preparation industry has always had a need for selectively removing areas of coatings, which have lost their adhesion while maintaining the areas of soundly adhered coatings. Most recently, carefully blasting with grit or ultra-high pressurewater have been the primary means to perform… more
Abstract:"The production of an automated robotic unit capable of preparinga surface for recoat, without the need to strip the surface tobare metal, can save the surface preparation industry tens ofmillions of dollars in time and clean-up costs by eliminatingslow and dangerous manual labor. The construction… more

Abstract:DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) in the environment can cause a variety of physiological problems in animals and humans. Thus, measurement and analysis of EDCs in the environment is very important to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in its… more
Abstract:The overall goals of this research and development are to design the most efficient recirculating system utilizing the advantages and engineering for the constraints of the coal bed methane discharge outfall, to construct and test the commercial prototype at the designated site, to quantify the… more

Abstract:There has been increasing interest in the use of beneficial bacteria (probiotic bacteria) to exclude bacterial pathogens in the intensive aquaculture of bivalve mollusk seed, shrimp postlarvae, and larval fish. As our work and that of others have shown, marine bacterial strains with probiotic… more
Abstract:The purpose of this SBIR phase I project is to demonstrate the utility of gelling particles made from cross-linked polyaspartate for controlled availability of both nutrients and pesticides in a turfgrass model system. Polyaspartate gelling materials: 1) fully biodegrade and have growth promoting… more
Abstract:ARBIOS developed a novel hybrid bioartificial live r(HyBAL) to treat patients with liver failure of various etiologies. In the absence of any other alternative, such patients must receive a liver transplant or endure prolonged hospitalization. In treating acute liver failure it is critical to… more
Abstract:We have developed a transdominant genetic methodology for isolating peptide, protein or RNA factors (collectively called peturbagens) that modulate biochemical targets within a cell to alter its phenotype. Because it is genetic approach, it can be applied in both the classical forward mode (from… more
There are several categories such as “By Agency”, “By Year”, “By State” etc.
Select a checkbox within a category to refine your search results.
Each of your selections is listed in the “Narrow Search Filters” bar. You can uncheck these selections to remove them.
Search for Either Criteria
When you select multiple values within a category, the results will include values that match either of the selections.
For example, selecting “2005” and “2007” in the “By Year” category will display results that include either 2005 OR 2007 in the results.
Narrowing the Search Results
You can refine your search results across categories. To narrow down your results, select multiple values across different categories. The results will only include values that match the selections across the categories.
For example, selecting “2005” in the “By Year” category and “NASA” in the “By Agency” category will only display the results that contain both “2005” AND “NASA” in the results.
