Phase I objective is to demonstrate the feasiblility of our proposed approach to minimize the defect and dislocation size and densities in Si substrate based HgCdTe epitaxial layers with a cut off wavelength of ~10 microns at 77 K. Phase II effort will validate our approach with demonstration of large area Si substrate based HgCdTe epitaxial layers with area in excess of 25 cm2 and in addition dem ...

System requirements elicitation is a time consuming process with an extremely high penalty for errors. Mistakes made in the requirements phase will cost 50 times more to fix while they are uncovered in the production phase as compared to fixing them in the requirements phase. VIStology and Northeastern University are proposing to develop an approach for supporting the requirements elicitation phas ...

In order to counter emerging threats from the Middle East and Southeast Asia, the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) is acquiring new sensor (e.g. AN/TPY-2 and PTSS) and weapon technology (SM-3). As these new technologies becomes fielded, the BMDS's Command, Control Battle Management and Communication (C2BMC) component must be able to correlate objects between multiple sensors. Inheren ...
