ABSTRACT: The floor of an ALC is like a well-orchestrated dance. However, when an unexpected failure occurs, it can introduce significant delays in not only the specific aircraft"s maintenance, but of the entire network of systems. 21st Century Systems, Inc. (21CSi) is in the position to answer this challenge with a concept called Reactive Aircraft Maintenance System via Evolutionary Scheduling ( ...

ABSTRACT: Silicon-based lasers/detectors have long been desired for owing to the possibility of monolithic integration of photonics with high-speed Si electronics and the aspiration of broadening the reach of Si technology by expanding its functionalities well beyond electronics. The goal of this project is to first develop high quality SiGeSn material and then use it to demonstrate prototype opt ...

ABSTRACT: The thermal spray process has many inherent complexities within each sub-process including feedstock manufacturing, component surface preparation and masking, torch parameter selection, robot trajectory and laboratory coating evaluation. Each sub-process is governed by rigid specifications that provide thermal spray applicators with procedural and process guidelines throughout the appl ...

ABSTRACT: Assured Information Security, Inc. (AIS) proposes Endpoint-Operated Link-assured Security (EOLuS), an effort to develop a product with the capability for realizing continuous end-to-end trust (EtET) in a dynamic network a network in which every client would verify and monitor the trustworthiness of its peers prior to communicating sensitive information. After the successful completion ...

ABSTRACT:The overall goal is to develop an evaluation systembased on real Mission dataof Ground Moving Target Indicator (GMTI) exploitation algorithms.Real-world Mission data is identified by analysts, who in the standard course of doing their job, fulfill Request for Information (RFI) Essential Elements of Information (EEI) responses.Our objectives are to provide the capability to evaluate a wide ...

ABSTRACT: In order to prevent loss of sensitive data, organizations need to be able to tag data with classification and releasability metadata. Currently classification is a manual and labor-intensive process, which slows the dissemination of sharable data. ATC-NY will develop DocMark, a product to automatically determine classification and dissemination metadata and record it in standard forma ...

ABSTRACT: With the objective of developing validated bearing performance software, this proposed development focuses on several technical areas. First, the generalized life models developed in Phase I shall be extended to include elastic property variation with depth for improved modeling of case hardened materials such as M50 NiL. In addition rolling elements shall be modeled as separate element ...

ABSTRACT:Cyber operators mentally integrate numerous data sources, many whose native format is difficult to comprehend. Visualizations can help, but the raw data must first be transformed. Designing effective visualizations is also difficult because there is a dearth of empirical research on how various visualizations affect the cyber operators performance. Secure Decisions proposes to systematica ...

ABSTRACT:Trusted platform module(TPM) devices provide the core root of trust for modern computer systems. These devices are used for secure, trusted, and measured boot approaches as well as to secure data for user applications such as Microsoft's Bitlocker technology. However, more and more systems are now virtualized in the cloud. Currently hypervisor technologies either do not provide guests wit ...

ABSTRACT:Mastodon Design will develop and propose a conceptual model of a multi-function, Type-1 radio that will greatly improve the operational effectiveness of the SOF Battlefield Airmen. Mastodon will deliver the results of a feasibility study based on the proposed design. The study will include an analysis of the key technological components and their impact on predicted radio performance. The ...
