This SBIR Phase I project will create an event representation framework and generate a catalogue of reasoning mechanisms for transforming domain specific events into a convenient representational framework. The choice of the representation scheme used to model a domain for analysis by the neural network of fuzzy logic system can make an enormous difference in the ease and efficiency of the proble ...

N/A

One of the most serious obstacles to the practical implementation of biosensor technology for BW and CW detection onto UAV 5 and other remote deployment applications is the need for miniaturization of the sensor systems. To meet this need, Systems & Processes Engineering Corporation (SPEC) proposes to develop a miniaturized biosensor system which is essentially reagentless. The proposed system w ...

UTS will investigate technologies that can be applied to an 'after-action-review' capability in support of weapon system development and testing. The capability can be used to provide standard "Debrief Module" products during and after a DIS experiment. The Debrief Module will support "what if" analysis during and within hours after a DIS experiment, including an assessment of the impact of alte ...

N/A

The objective of this project is to develop a significantly improved ground vehicle for military reconnaissance with high speed over rough terrain and high mobility a prime factor. Concepts to capitalize on the attributes of electric drive and active suspension utilizing swing arm technology are explored and a practical system selected. The use of independent drive wheels of a hybrid electric dr ...

Xenotran corporation proposes to develop a new antenna system employing an optical true-time-delay steering technique that will be suitable for Army radar. The antenna system will be based on the optical commutator, a device that is capable of switching fiber optic delay lines in an ordered sequence, to provide exact timing necessary to steer antenna arrays in two dimensions. The phase shifters ...

This Phase I project pertains to the synthesis and biological evaluation of novel L-nucleoside-derived antimalarial compounds. A major recent finding has been that during the development of the malaria parasite in the host erythrocyte, profound alterations are caused in the permeability of the host cell-membrane. Recent investigations have discovered that a new transport pathway for nucleosides ...

This project will develop innovative technology and architecture to support the design of decision aids capable of accumulating diverse experiences, integrating inputs from disparate sources, and then applying this knowledge to suggest a course of actions in new complex situations, even when presented with incomplete and uncertain data. The new technology is derived from a model of the nervous sy ...
