The trend toward replacement of highly toxic chemicals with less hazardous alternatives has created the demand for replacement of chromate conversion coatings for corrosion protection of aluminum alloys. Aluminum alloys are the predominate structural material used in aircraft because of their high strength-to-weight ratios, affordability and processability. Aluminum is subject to catastrophic fail ...

RNIs is proposing a novel approach for the Dismounted Augmented Reality Environment (DARE) as a component of the STE that is intended to fully integrate and interoperate with other STE components including live, virtual, and constructive domains, existing and future dismountedtraining simulations and equipment, and support cloud-based development and content delivery.

Significant similarities exist between DoD simulation applications and networked simulation games developed for entertainment. To date, however, there has been no compelling reason for commercial game developers to adopt DoD methods and standards. Interestingly, HLA compares favorably to current commercial solutions like Microsoft's DirectPlay. There is clear benefit to DoD if HLA is embraced b ...

Federal, state, local, and military missions for Disaster Relief, Emergency Action, and Humanitarian Assistance (DREAHA) require all of the traditional command, control, communications, computer and intelligence (C4I) functions used by military units for traditional warfare. New civilian systems that leverage and reuse military C4I systems to plan, prepare, identify, vector, monitor, and recover ...

For this Phase 1 SBIR, we propose to create a model of cyber physical security called CP-SMARTS: Cyber Physical Security for Mission-Aware ARmy Tactical Systems.CP-SMARTS will model not only the services required of Cyber Physical Systems (such as computation, communications, control, etc.) but also Mission Assurance requirements (definitions of Mission Essential Function and corresponding vulnera ...

OptiMetrics, Inc. proposes to develop real-time monitoring and after action review tools specifically designed to function in advanced HLA simulation environments. The development approach will include: Tailoring tools to user requirements; A highly object-oriented design; A layered design to interface between our software and the external interfaces (e.g., HLA/RTI); A preference for COTS or GOT ...

The Defense Modeling & Simulation Office (DMSO) is in the process of defining a common technical framework for modeling and simulation to promote interoperability and reuse, and has established the High-Level Architecture (HLA) to which all DoD simulation must conform. This decree has led to the need for a modular data management system capable of passively collecting data from an HLA federation ...
