Alternative Feedstocks, Pretreatment/Biochemical
SBC: Chesapeake Perl, Inc. Topic: N/ACost 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 ...

Search Enhancement with Adaptive Thesaurus and Ontology Resources
SBC: Edgewater Technology Associates, Inc. Topic: N/AThe 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 ...

Seismic Detection with Mini Seismometer
SBC: Eentec Topic: N/AThe development of very small, versatile, rugged, low power, low noise, one or three-axis short-period seismometers is needed to monitor nuclear detonations. Specifications include total sensor size less than 1 cubic inch, low power consumption, low sensor self noise below the USGS Low Earth Noise Model, and dynamic range of at least 120 dB over a frequency band of 0.2 to 40 Hz. However, all com ...

Increased Seed Oil by Metabolic Regulation
SBC: PLANT SENSORY SYSTEMS, LLC Topic: N/AThe biodiesel industry is growing rapidly in the U.S. and is expected to continue growing. However, even if all oilseeds produced in the U.S. were used for biodiesel, the supply would still fall short of the nation¿s need. Moreover, as the biodiesel market increases, food prices are expected to increase due to the efflux of seeds into the expanded biofuel market. Thus, an increase in seed oi ...

Novel Diode Laser Cladding of High Temperature Alloys for Used in Ultrasupercritical Coal-Fired Boilers
SBC: TITANOVA, INC. Topic: N/AThe future use of coal, which is projected to remain a mainstay of energy consumption well into the 21st century, will require efficient, low emission ultra-supercritical coal-fired boilers. The high operating temperature, along with the oxidizing, corroding, and slag-deposition-induced microclimate environment of these systems have generated a critical need for new cladding techniques. Due to t ...

FPGA-Based End-Station Security for High-Performance Networking
SBC: Acadia Optronics, Llc Topic: 52bTraditional 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 ...

Multi-Protocol File Transfer Application For High Performance Networks
SBC: Acadia Optronics, Llc Topic: 52cHigh 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 ...

Web 2.0 Based Federated Network Management Environment
SBC: Acadia Optronics, Llc Topic: 52dThere 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 ...

Software Management, Distribution, and Support for ESnet Network Provisioning Tools
SBC: Acadia Optronics, Llc Topic: 52aIn 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 ...

High-Temperature Capacitors for Geothermal Applications
SBC: Active Signal Technologies, Inc. Topic: 21bEnhanced 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 ...
