The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. FPGA-Based End-Station Security for High-Performance Networking

    SBC: Acadia Optronics, Llc            Topic: 52b

    Traditional cyber-security methods are inadequate to address the increasing number of threats within larger and higher-performance networks. The U.S. Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT), the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of the Chief Information Officer (CIO), and many other organizations report consistent failures within thes ...

  2. Multi-Protocol File Transfer Application For High Performance Networks

    SBC: Acadia Optronics, Llc            Topic: 52c

    High performance network users are frequently unable to achieve adequate throughput when transferring large files across wide-area networks. In general, such poor file transfer performance over ¿long fat networks¿ (LFN) is primarily caused by limitations in transport protocols and network stack configurations on end-system hosts. In addition, some traditional file transfer applications have in ...

  3. Web 2.0 Based Federated Network Management Environment

    SBC: Acadia Optronics, Llc            Topic: 52d

    There is a need for improved collaboration between and within groups of network operators and users. At present, a variety of tools exist to share network health and status between domains, reserve resources across multiple networks, and remotely access computing and storage resources. However, no unified environment exists that combines these tools into a single, easy-to-use framework. Further ...

  4. Software Management, Distribution, and Support for ESnet Network Provisioning Tools

    SBC: Acadia Optronics, Llc            Topic: 52a

    In order to enable the efficient use of high performance networks, the DOE has invested substantial resources in the development of next-generation network provisioning systems. For example, the DOE-funded tool, On-demand Secure Circuits and Advanced Reservation System (OSCARS), enables users to dynamically provision network paths with Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees. Additional work is requ ...

  5. High-Temperature Capacitors for Geothermal Applications

    SBC: Active Signal Technologies, Inc.            Topic: 21b

    Enhanced Geothermal Systems technology is capable of providing up to 100 billion watts of electricity within 50 years, by utilizing the United States¿ abundant, clean, renewable geothermal resources. In order to exploit this energy in a cost-effective manner, and thereby establish it as economically competitive, diagnostic-while-drilling tools must be used. However, these tools, which must acc ...

  6. A Scalable Distributed Client Based Meta Search and Discovery Infrastructure

    SBC: Weblib, Llc            Topic: 64a

    Web searching has become a ubiquitous and indispensable activity for a wide spectrum of human endeavors. The success of search engines, such as Google, and meta-search engines, such as Science.gov has been built, to a large extent and on an unprecedented scale, upon costly hardware, software, and network infrastructures. Many desirable meta-search and discovery applications ¿ e.g., providing ac ...

  7. Optimal Substrate-Specific Hemicellulase Enzyme Mixtures

    SBC: Zymetis, Inc.            Topic: 13b

    With concerns over climate change, national security threats stemming from dependence on foreign oil, and economic dislocation as the global economy adjusts to the end of cheap petroleum, companies and consumers are seeking alternatives to gasoline. Although ethanol produced from renewable cellulosic biomass provides an attractive alternative, the inherent complexity of biomass material has preve ...

  8. Alternative Feedstocks, Pretreatment/Biochemical

    SBC: Chesapeake Perl, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Cost effective enzymatic lignin degradation could play a key role in enabling commercially viable processes for producing fuel ethanol from woody feedstocks, such as corn stover, switchgrass, hybrid poplar, willow, loblolly pine, and eucalyptus. This project focuses on the identification, production, and eventual commercialization of one important class of these enzymes, lignases, which catalyze ...

  9. Combined Harvesting of Algae and Extraction of Oil using DynaJets Cavitating Jets

    SBC: DYNAFLOW, INC.            Topic: 28a

    The carbon dioxide produced from coal-fired power plants can be captured and used to grow algae. The algae convert CO2 into natural oils that are suitable for conversion into biodiesel. However, harvesting the algae and extracting the oil are currently difficult and expensive operations. Cheaper, more-energy-efficient processes are required before mass production of algae can be used to produce ...

  10. Search Enhancement with Adaptive Thesaurus and Ontology Resources

    SBC: Edgewater Technology Associates, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    The lack of suitable data structures and ranking mechanisms hinder the effective utilization of semantic repositories in operational scientific and technical retrieval systems. Such systems could greatly benefit from semantic knowledge to improve the recall and precision of search queries. This project will create rich semantic networks that can be interfaced with search engines to enhance query ...
