ABJ Integration Technologies, Inc. proposes to model a vertically optically interconnected stack of silicon integrated circuits to form a three dimensional system. This 3D system will utilize through-substrate optoelectronic communication to which the package and silicon are optically transparent. System optimization for user specifications will include materials and components such as emitters ...

The 3D-Flow Processor system is a new concept in very fast, real-time system architectures. The throughput of this system can reach up to 100 millin frames/sec, yet unlike currently available systems of comparable speed, it is fully programmable and extremely flexible. Algorithms for processing information from the input of multiple sensor can easily be implemented on a 3D-Flow system to achiev ...

ADVANCED PROGRAMMING CONCEPTS (APC) PROPOSES TO EXPAND A PREVIOUSLY DEVELOPED TACTICAL DISPLAY SYSTEM (TDS) TO ORIENT IT FOR USE BY TANK AND OTHER ARMORED VHEICLE COMMANDERS. THIS TDS WILL (FOR PHASE I) BE UPDATED VIA SMALL VHF PORTABLE RADIOS USING X.25 PROTOCOL. THE TACTICAL DISPLAY WILL CONSIST OF TERRAIN, OWN UNIT POSITION, FRIENDLY AND ENEMY UNIT POSITIONS AND MAP OVERLAYS FOR REFERENCE. FREE ...

TO MEET THE KINETIC ENERGY ANTI-SATELLITE (KE ASAT) REQUIREMENTS FOR TIMELY AND RELIABLE KILL ASSESSMENT, AEROMET PROPOSES TO RECOMMEND INNOVATIVE TECHNIQUES IN REAL-TIME KILL ASSESSMENT SPECTROSCOPY. BECAUSE IT CAN BE CRITICALLY IMPORTANT TO ACCURATELY VERIFY SATELLITE ELIMINATION, A KILL ASSESSMENT SYSTEM MUST DISCERN BETWEEN VARIOUS HIT AND MISS PHENOMENA, INCLUDING THE USE OF POTENTIAL COUNTER ...

AEROMET PROPOSES TO DEVELOP A SENSOR SYSTEM FOR THE PURPOSE OF MONITORING RF FIELD STRENGTH ENERGY. PHASE I WILL CONCENTRATE ON THE DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF A UNIQUE PROGRAMMABLE SENSOR THAT CAN SENSE THE ENERGY IN VARIOUS FREQUENCY BANDS. THE SENSOR WILL ACT AS A STAND ALONE UNIT AND BE POWERED BY SOLAR CHARGED BATTERIES. THE SENSOR WILL BE DESIGNED SO THAT MANY OF THEM CAN BE OPERATED IN CONJUN ...

In response to the DOD request to design and develop novel catalysts to facilitate the synthesis of energetic materials and commercially viable products, it is proposed to undertake a detailed molecular modeling studies on the structures of various zeolites and the binding of organic compounds and inorganic cations with these zeolites. New force field will be developed for these zeolites suitabl ...

THE OBJECTIVE IS TO DEVELOP COMPUTER SOFTWARE WHICH ANALYZES THE OPERATIONAL HISTORY OF ARMY VEHICLES, SUCH AS 5-TON DIESEL TRUCKS, AND BASED ON THIS ANALYSIS RECOMMENDS MAINTENANCE AND OTHER PREVENTIVE ACTION WHICH MINIMIZES EQUIPMENT BREAKDOWN. THE SOFTWARE WOULD OPERATE ON A PRIME COMPUTER, AND IT SHOULD INCLUDE EXTENSIVE GRAPHICS CAPABILITIES WHICH WOULD ASSIST IN PROGNOSTIC ANALYSIS. THE SOFT ...

A FEASIBILITY STUDY IS PROPOSED ON A NOVEL CONCEPT FOR A GENERATION OF A VERY LIGHTWEIGHT, HIGHLY FOCUSED GAMMA RADIATION BEAM USEFUL FOR MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS IN DEFENSE SUCH AS KILL OF ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS IN LAND WARFARE, AND (AS DESCRIBED HEREIN) DISCRIMINATION OF TARGETS IN SPACE. THE DEVICE IS SMALL ENOUGH TO "PIGGY BACK" ON THE PROPOSED REENTRY VEHICLE (RV) INTERCEPTOR MISSILES, OR BE CARRIED ...

This project will analyze and select promising materials and designs to be used in the plumes of tactical solid rocket motors for missile steering and control. The emphasis is on high-performance refractory materials and compatibility of material systems. The control fins experience severe thermal and severe particulate erosion environments. Missile controllability requires fins with minimal er ...
