An estimated 70% of supercomputing cycles are dedicated to solving large-scale least squares problems, which are at the core of important DOE computational problems in energy fusion research, bioinformatics, geodetics, structural analysis, tomography, and astrophysics. This project will extend the already successful Sca/LAPACKrc FPGA-accelerated solver suite for linear equations, with added functi ...

Over 70% of supercomputing usage today is dedicated to solving large systems of linear equations. Linear equations are at the core of the most important DOE computational problems in energy fusion research, accelerator simulations, weather modeling, oil & gas exploration, chemistry, materials, and astrophysics, among others. This project will provide computational power to the solution of large de ...

3 Sigma Research proposes an innovative approach to develop a open architecture based data model and process for adding self-identifying information to a datagram. The power of our potential solution is in applying results from our research of Packaged Ontology Certificates to the unique performance issues with real-time processing of datagrams. Combining this with a revolutionary way of viewing ...

PALS for Sniper Detection (PALS-SD) is a straightforward near-term evolution of A2-T2’s existing PALS 3D for enhanced long-range facial identification technologies. Essentially, our existing multi-modal Electro-Optical/IR/Laser-Sight/Designator/Range-Finder configurations will be upgraded to include an eye-safe pulsed laser and sensor that discriminately detects reflections from eyes and optics. ...

There are often secondary or tertiary effects to blast-related injuries including ear injury and hearing loss, which may also result in cognitive and linguistic deficits. The PALS medical Phase I prototype will be a modular addition to our existing technologies that assist with the rehabilitation of traumatic brain injury and gait training for patients with stroke, cerebral palsy and amputations. ...

Traumatic head and neck injuries account for 16-33% of all war-related injuries and are a leading cause of mortality upon evacuation to a definitive care setting. Therapeutic advances are urgently needed for these soldiers. This application is focused on treating one of the most important determinants of outcome from severe head injury, the degree and duration of elevated intracranial pressure (I ...

The speed of supersonic cruise missiles generates surface temperatures that can exceed the limitations of even high temperature structural metals like titanium. Insulation to protect electronics equipment in the missile is typically a parasitic thermal protection system. A multi-functional solution that has the potential of revolutionizing the design and performance of missiles, re-entry vehicles ...

Miller Fasteners made from 2-D laminates represent the state of the art in joining CMC panels to metal frames. Despite its success, the extant Miller fastener design is limited by its construction from a laminate of 2-D fabric. The resultant fastener part has poor interlaminar shear strength, and its manufacture and application entails high machining costs and high material scrap rates. 3TEX, i ...

Our proposed receiver design will satisfy or exceed the requirements set forth in this solicitation. The key innovation is our melding of approaches – to produce a compact lightweight receiver with onboard processing that leverages picosecond timing resolution and burst acquisition methodology previously implemented by our team. The receiver architecture will utilize electronic gating, automat ...

Advanced Technologies Group, Inc. (ATG) proposes to develop an innovative High Powered Ram-Air-Turbine (HiRAT) capable of producing over 60kw of power at an air speed of 250 knots. During Phase I ATG will design, analyze and test a scaled turbine to determine feasibility. Preliminary analysis indicates that the ATG HiRAT is far superior to existing conventional turbine designs on several levels.
