N/A

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 ...

A NEW COMPUTATIONAL ENGINE BASED ON THE EMERGING TECHNOLOGY OF ACOUSTIC CHARGE TRANSPORT (ACT) HAS BEEN DEVELOPED TO PROCESS ANALOG SIGNALS OR DIGITAL DATA AT SPEEDS MORE THAN THREE ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE BEYOND CURRENT DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSOR CHIPS. THE ACT PROGRAMMABLE SIGNAL PROCESSOR IS A MASSIVELY PARALLEL ANALOG DEVICE ON A SINGLE GALLIUM-ARSENIDE CHIP WHICH MAY BE USED TO PERFORM CORRELATIONS ...

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 ...

Mountain Wave, Inc. proposes to investigate the development of an automated network security management product that would allow personnel within an Information Technology (IT) organization to combine information from heterogeneous sources into an integrated application that captures business processes and automates tasks to "prevent" potential security violations. This product will: be "extensib ...

N/A

Aurora Flight Sciences, with expertise in designing and manufacturing low Reynolds number high-altitude aircraft, proposes to develop new aerodynamics computational tools and flight control solutions to enable the development of 15cm and smaller hovering micro unmanned aerial vehicles (MUAV)s. The objective of this project is to validate the analytical approach, and refine the proposed MUAV desig ...

N/A

The proposed SBIR program will accelerate the commercialization of multiplexed optical fiber networks and their use in both DoD and commercial systems. F&S (Fiber & Sensor Technologies, Inc.) proposes to implement all-optical low-loss switches for signal multiplexing in large networks. This new approach to multiplexing is based on the development of optically-activated in-line switches to automa ...

THE DEVELOPMENT OF HIGH TC SUPERCONDUCTING THIN FILMS WILL HAVE SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON A LARGE NUMBER OF MODERN TECHNOLOGIES, ESPECIALLY IN THE AREA OF ADVANCED MICROCIRCUITRY. ALTHOUGH SUPERCONDUCTING THIN FILMS HAVE BEEN PREPARED BY A VARIETY OF METHODS, ALL OF THESE METHODS REQUIRE HIGH TEMPERATURE PROCESSING STEPS WHICH ARE INCOMPATIBLE WITH THE PRODUCTION OF HIGH DENSITY MICROCIRCUITRY, AND NO ...
