The CONOPS for the Expeditionary Medical Support System (EMEDS) is based on practical effectiveness, speed, and efficiency. Key among the tools required by the Air Mobility Command and the Air Combat Command, which are two of the major commands that are part of the United Air Force is a multi-channel intravenous infusion pump capable of delivering fluids that meets the safe-to-fly criteria for all ...

We will develop, demonstrate, and built a sensor array designed frommathematical models thatare based on the maximum likelihood estimator(MLE), the Cramer- Rao lower bound (CRB), and the density function theory(DFT). The MLE will be used to estimate the concentration of the gases inside a mixture by minimizing the error trough the Cramer-Rao bound.The DFT method will model thephysisorption and che ...

Cybersecurity risk management in complicated and dynamic environment is challenging. On one hand, cybersecurity knowledge management is complex and needs to be updated promptly with continuously emerging cybersecurity attacks and risks. The companies have to select fuse a lot of input data with their own experience for cybersecurity risk management. On the other hand, while the same or similar vul ...

SecureLogix is a current performer on the PARIDINE project and is focused on defining and detecting NIDEs such as Telephony Denial of Service (TDoS) and other call pattern-based attacks against 9-1-1 networks. Our approach is to enhance our cloud-based Call Authentication Service (CAS), extending its inherent authentication and spoofing detection capabilities, with the ability to use machine learn ...

As blockchain technologies continue to evolve and emerge, DHS and numerous other Federal agencies have an increasing need to trace new cryptocurrencies and cryptotokens to support investigations and enforcement actions. Some new cryptocurrencies, such as Zcash and Monero, are designed to provide anonymity to users and thus pose challenges to enforcement agencies looking to track and curtail illici ...

WGS Systems LLC (WGS) proposes the Detector Integration with Current and Emerging Networked Systems (DICENS) research and engineering effort to develop relevant communications protocols, application programming interfaces, and interface control documentation to allow legacy and emerging radiation detection systems to be integrated into current and emerging networked systems.Radiation and nuclear ( ...

Rapid, reliable, and accurate detection of radiation is critical in preparing for and responding to potential terrorist attacks with a radiological dispersal device (RDD) or "dirty bomb". Current detection methods using handheld or vehicle-borne detectors are inefficient, labor-intensive, and often limited to small screening areas. Deploying a small autonomous UAS carrying a radiation detector has ...

Next Century's CPACT (CheckPoint Advanced Computed Tomography) solution aims to fill a mission-critical need for easy, rapid, accurate, and intuitive adjudication of bags at airport security checkpoints using CT imagery. The goal of CPACT (pronounced "see packed") is to enable TSA and our nation to reap the benefits of the increased security that 3D CT imagery can provide without introducing delay ...

Vulnerabilities in telecommunications channels are being exploited at alarming rates by malicious attackers to commit fraud, perpetrate scams, and organize data breaches. In addition to financial losses incurred by corporations and taxpayers, attacks against government agencies such as the DHS can severely compromise national security. A common element of these attacks is the attacker's ability to ...

For this SBIR Intelligent Automation Inc. (IAI), teamed with researchers from Department of Dermatology, University of Maryland School of Medicine, propose to develop a smartphone based dermatology diagnosis system, MDerm that can be operated by warriors
