We propose a high performance library of signal processing tools that incorporate a newly developed technique known as fluctuation enhanced sensing (FES) to enhance the novel microsensor developed at NIST. Our goal is to improve the performance of the NIST sensor from two angles. One is to apply our existing proven algorithms to the NIST data. The other one is to incorporate advanced FES concept t ...

Single chirality of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is critical for their superb mechanical, thermal, optical and electronic properties. All known methods for producing nanotubes give mixtures of tubes with different chiralities. Physical separation of SWCNT by chirality is thus an enabling step for many potential applications and fundamental studies. The existing anion exchange resins are ...

G2 proposes to develop an intuitive, interactive SCAP content creation and editing utility that will provide a user-friendly operating environment. The promise of security automation offers the opportunity for great advances in software assurance, security governance/reporting, and ongoing monitoring activities. Hindering that promise is the fact that current data exchange protocols are cumbersome ...

APPLIED RESEARCH CORPORATION PROPOSES TO DEVELOP A SOFTWARE SYSTEM FOR ANALYZING THE ATMOSPHERIC EFFECTS OF NUCLEAR CONFLICT SCENARIOS. THE PHASE I EFFORT WILL CONCENTRATE ON THE EFFECTS OF AEROSOLS INJECTED INTO THE ATMOSPHERE BY NUCLEAR DETONATION AND THE ASSOCIATED FIRES. THESE EFFECTS WILL BE EXPLORED, USING A MULTI-COMPONENT SIMULATION CONSISTING OF THE FOLLOWING EXISTING COMPUTER CODES: - A ...

OBJECTIVE: Expand the state-of-the-art to develop new technologies that predict our enemy"s intentions before they act by focusing on"24x7"TTL of terrorists and WMD-related activities in what is now a global theater of war. Enhance technical capabilities to globally tag, track and locate personnel and materials associated with the development, manufacture, or proliferation of WMD. DESCRIPTI ...
