AN ENGINEERING FRAMEWORK NEEDED TO REDRESS CRITICAL INFORMATION SHARING, COMMUNICATION AND COORDINATION ISSUES THAT ARE ALL BUT IGNORED BY TODAY'S CAD SYSTEMS. THE PROPOSED PROJECT WILL COMBINE SOPHISTICATED DARPA-SPONSORED TECHNOLOGY, SUCH AS SHARED KNOWLEDGE REPRESENTATIONS AND INTELLIGENT AGENTS, WITH EMERGING MAINSTREAM INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES LIKE HYPERMEDIA, EXPERT SYSTEMS, AND ELECTRONIC M ...

Recent advances in processing technology have enabled the development of integrated optoelectronics as viable commercial products to meet the high-end needs of telecommunications, data-communications, computing, and signal processing applications. However, the performance and complexity of these components is limited by the computer-aided design software available for their development. Currentl ...

One of the biggest problems faced by both military and non-military personnel in planning and conducting Operations Other Than War (OOTW) and Law Enforcement (LE) is a lack of cultural awareness. A lack of cultural awareness in OOTW causes misplanning and misinterpretation in the areas of economics, politics, religion, and historical events. The objective of the proposed work is to produce a des ...

THE OPERATIONAL PROBLEM ADDRESSED IS LONG RANGE PASSIVE "HOSTILE" TARGET RECOGNITION FOR OWN FIRE CONTROL RADAR SET-ON. THE SPECIFIC PROJECT OBJECTIVE IS TO DEMONSTRATE DIGITAL SET-ON OF AN ELECTRONIC DECISIONS, INC (EDI) ACOUSTIC CHARGE TRANSPORT (ACT) DIGITALLY PROGRAMMABLE TRANSVERSAL FILTER (DPTF), BY A PREVIOUS RADCON DEVELOPED, CLASSIFIED ESM/ECM RECEIVER, FOR ENHANCED SENSITIVITY AND SELECT ...

THE DEVELOPMENT OF A NEW VHF/UHF CHANNELIZER TUNER ARCHITECTURE USING ACOUSTIC CHARGE TRANSPORT (ACT) TECHNOLOGY IS PROPOSED. THE TUNER TRANSLATES A 15 MHZ SPECTRAL BANDWIDTH IN THE VHF/UHF RANGE INTO A DIGITIZED OUPUT FOR DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSING. THE PROPOSED TUNER ARCHITECTURE IS UNIQUE COMPARED WITH CONVENTIONAL TUNER ARCHITECTURES, AND OFFERS THE POTENTIAL OF A VERY SMALL SIZE TUNER, PERHAPS ...

A radical new approach to adaptive antenna processing, based on the emerging theory of per Survivor Processing (PSP), is proposed to enhance performance of cellular systems. This approach offers the opportunity to achieve large performance improvements (e.g. improved acquisition., and/or interference rejection) over conventional adaptive antenna array techniques when a large number of users diff ...

There are significant theoretical advantages to using arrays of high resolution microlenses for photolitography. Some of these derive from the fact that optical aberrations scale with lens size and are therefore small for microlenses. Microlenses are extremely reproducible, can be fabricated from fused silica producing good quality ultraviolet lenses, and their curved surfaces are atomically smoot ...

This project is dedicated to the development of an adaptive network security management tool that is analogous to implementing and incident/response paring mechanism on top of a universal remote control facility for a variety of network and security tools, network types and operating systems. Our proposed approach to accomplishing this is to integrate and agent architecture with a Case-Based Reas ...
