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 ...

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 ...

The nuclear weapons community has traditionally focused on the next generation or level of weapon capability complimented by gathering and analysis of actual test data. Now, with the cessation of actual weapons testing, there is an increased need to use the actual test data in modeling techniques to better understand the phenomenology and potential effects of nuclear weapons. The first phase of ...

DEVELOPMENT OF AN INNOVATIVE AND ECONOMICAL EXPERIMENTAL METHOD IS PROPOSED WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE BASIC BEHAVIOR DATA NECESSARY TO MEET THE DNA OBJECTIVE OF PROVIDING ADEQUATE ANALYSIS, DESIGN AND ASSESSMENT METHODS FOR MINIMALLY HARDENED TUNNELS. THIS DEVELOPMENT IS ACCOMPANIED BY ANALYSIS CAPABLE OF REPRESENTING THE COMPLEX INELASTIC MATERIAL BEHAVIOR OF THE ROCK MASS AND OF REPRESENTING SIMPLE ...

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 ...
