This effort develops automatic detection of malicious binary code based on syntax-independent logical control flow patterns. Control flow patterns yield specific detectable signatures that can be extracted from binary code. Because they are based on functional control flow, these signatures also discriminate the kinds of behavior a binary can perform; furthermore, these signatures are independen ...

This effort will develop a capability for automated modification of binary code based on canonical algorithm patterns of control flows. Since these methods are based on control flow, they are OS and language independent. The methods offer a path towards building operating systems that are self-repairing and can immunized against malicious behavior. This effort will develop methods to automate in ...

The AEgis Technologies Group, Inc. proposes to develop a 2D focal plane array UV/VIS light modulator using MEMS-based diffractive grating technology that will greatly enhance the capability of HWIL test systems. Grating ElectroMechanical Systems (GEMS) technology developed by Kodak Eastman will be enhanced and modified to accomplish a wideband, analog modulator capable of providing significantly h ...

Reusable space vehicles currently being designed by the United States Air Force (USAF) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for both military and commercial applications require innovative structural components that are both light weight and able to withstand the severe thermal environments of multiple reentries into the atmosphere without time consuming and expensive refur ...

Reliable and sensitive detection of biowarfare agents (BWAs) such as Bacillus anthracis, Yersinia pestis, Francisella tularensis, ricin, botulinum toxin, etc. is an important challenge for both military operations and domestic anti-terrorism efforts. We are proposing to develop a biomimetic polymer coating, containing receptors for BWA targets, that becomes fluorescent when exposed to samples con ...

The objective of this SBIR proposal is for Analytical Services, Inc. (ASI) to develop design requirements for a client/server, Windows-based, database catalog (potentially, a Web-based distributed system) to track Radiation Hardening technologies and components of interest to the Missile Defense Agency (MDA). This Radiation Hardening Catalog (RHC) will initially be used to store and track radiati ...

The air force is phasing out the F-15 a very successful fighter jet but in a constant pursuit of air supremacy the air force has invested in a new fighter that will take its place. The f-22 will replace the F-15, it has been designed to have more stealth capabilities and be quicker and more agile than its predecessor.

Oklahoma City Air Logistics Center (OC-ALC) is one of the major service depots responsible for maintaining U.S. Air Force weapon systems, including the B-1B Lancer, the B-52 Stratofortress, the KC-135 Stratotanker, and the E-3 Sentry. Many of these planes have been in service for a great number of years, and thus suffer from fatigue and wear. A great deal of effort is put into inspecting these air ...

This proposal presents an innovative, affordable, and feasible architecture of frequency synthesis and modulation based on SiGe high-speed MMIC designs. The architecture includes an ultrahigh-speed direct digital synthesizer (DDS) with a maximum clock frequency of 10GHz to synthesize and modulate the intermediate frequency (IF) of 1GHz and above. It uses a low-noise phase lock loop (PLL) to gene ...
