Category-Theoretic Tool for Manufacturing-related Information Integration
SBC: CATEGORICAL INFORMATICS, INC. Topic: 9010173RCategorical theory has recently been successfully applied to translate information from one computer system to another. Researchers at MIT have developed a prototype software tool based on category theory for solving information-integration programs. The tool has successfully solved small-scale information-integration problems including a problem identified by NIST about enriching the manufacturin ...

Optimized CO2 Gas Sensor for Autonomous Measurement of Ocean Carbon
SBC: DIOXIDE MATERIALS, INC. Topic: 822RThe objective of the proposed work is to create low cost, low power sensors for autonomous measurement of ocean carbon. In our Phase I effort, we showed that Dioxide Materials’ miniature CO2 sensors have the speed and sensitivity to meet NOAA’s requirements for sensing ocean carbon. The objective of the proposed work is to further develop the sensors so that they can be used directly in NOAA ...

Ultra-High Precision Laser Isotope Monitor for I3CO2, CO180 and CO170
SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC Topic: 831RCGreenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are primary drivers of global climate change. Hence there is a crucial need to quantify their sources and sinks. A powerful method to constrain source and sink strengths is the analysis of the relative proportions of isotopic variants of GHG’s in atmospheric samples like those collected globally by NOAA’s Cooperative Air Sampling Network. Measurements that are ca ...

Multi-Purpose Above Surface/Below Surface Expendable Dropsondes (MASED)
SBC: BOSTON ENGINEERING CORPORATION Topic: 842WThere are currently no inexpensive, expendable air-deployed monitoring systems (Dropsondes) that measure atmospheric data and oceanographic as a function of depth. These are important data in predicting the intensity and path of hurricanes. Boston Engineering proposes to provide NOAA with a solution to this challenge with the Multi-Purpose Above Surface/Below Surface Expendable Dropsonde (MASED) p ...

Rapid and Low-Cost Field Toxin Analysis to Monirot Harmful Algal Blooms
SBC: GINER INC Topic: 812NDuring the harmful algal blooms (HAB), marine algal toxins reach concentrations high enough to cause various neurological and gastrointestinal disorders through inhalation of the toxin or consumption of contaminated shellfish. Brevetoxins, produced by dinoflagellate Karenia brevis, are known to disrupt neurological processes to cause an illness called neurotoxic shellfish poisoning. The timely rec ...

Supporting Local Decision Making through a Comprehensive Community Driven Data Tool
SBC: Industrial Economics, Incorporated Topic: 851XA central part of NOAA’s mission is to develop and distribute scientific data, including large-scale climate, weather, marine, and coastal information for regional and national analysis. NOAA has also developed local data gathering tools on an as-needed basis. While these approaches demonstrate the power of local data collection, no existing tool meets the broad needs of environmental community ...

Generalized gUidance, Navigation & Control Architecture for Reusable Development (GUARD): Performance Evaluation in Relevant Operating Environments
SBC: SCIENTIFIC SYSTEMS CO INC Topic: H601In Phase I of this project, SSCI carried out initial development of the Generalized Guidance, Navigation & Control Architecture for Reusable Development (GUARD). The resulting framework is applicable across different Autonomous Rendezvous and Docking (AR&D) domains, and enables further development and testing of reusable GN&C software for such applications. GUARD is based on the key functional req ...

Drag Identification & Reduction Technology (DIRECT) for Elastically Shaped Air Vehicles
SBC: SCIENTIFIC SYSTEMS CO INC Topic: A304The Variable Camber Continuous Trailing Edge Flap (VCCTEF) concept offers potential improvements in the aerodynamic efficiency of aircraft through real time wing shaping. NASA and Boeing have been studying the suitability of this concept to address the drag reduction problem in aircraft with reduced-stiffness wings. However, reduced stiffness may lead to wing flutter. In addition, displacements of ...

Vertical Lift by Series Hybrid Power
SBC: AURORA FLIGHT SCIENCES CORPORATION Topic: A106Multi-rotors (e.g. quad-copters) typically have direct electric drive, where the electric motor shaft is directly coupled to the propeller shaft. The benefit of this configuration is simple and high fidelity control. But electric drive for vertical lift typically relies on lithium polymer batteries for energy storage, and battery specific energy is extremely low compared to internal combustion fue ...

Accelerating Memory-Access-Limited HPC Applications via Novel Fast Data Compression
SBC: Accelogic, LLC Topic: S501A fast-paced continual increase on the ratio of CPU to memory speed feeds an exponentially growing limitation for extracting performance from HPC systems. Ongoing developments and trends make it clear that this ratio will keep increasing over the next decade. Breaking this memory wall is one of the most important challenges that the HPC community faces today. In this project we introduce novel and ...
