An estimated 70% of supercomputing cycles are dedicated to solving large-scale least squares problems, which are at the core of important DOE computational problems in energy fusion research, bioinformatics, geodetics, structural analysis, tomography, and astrophysics. This project will extend the already successful Sca/LAPACKrc FPGA-accelerated solver suite for linear equations, with added functi ...

Over 70% of supercomputing usage today is dedicated to solving large systems of linear equations. Linear equations are at the core of the most important DOE computational problems in energy fusion research, accelerator simulations, weather modeling, oil & gas exploration, chemistry, materials, and astrophysics, among others. This project will provide computational power to the solution of large de ...

3 Sigma Research proposes an innovative approach to develop a open architecture based data model and process for adding self-identifying information to a datagram. The power of our potential solution is in applying results from our research of Packaged Ontology Certificates to the unique performance issues with real-time processing of datagrams. Combining this with a revolutionary way of viewing ...

PALS for Sniper Detection (PALS-SD) is a straightforward near-term evolution of A2-T2’s existing PALS 3D for enhanced long-range facial identification technologies. Essentially, our existing multi-modal Electro-Optical/IR/Laser-Sight/Designator/Range-Finder configurations will be upgraded to include an eye-safe pulsed laser and sensor that discriminately detects reflections from eyes and optics. ...

There are often secondary or tertiary effects to blast-related injuries including ear injury and hearing loss, which may also result in cognitive and linguistic deficits. The PALS medical Phase I prototype will be a modular addition to our existing technologies that assist with the rehabilitation of traumatic brain injury and gait training for patients with stroke, cerebral palsy and amputations. ...

The DoD spends over $1 Billion annually on disability payments attributed to hearing loss, yet this can be prevented. Research shows that with proper hearing protection a 19% reduction in hearing loss cases can be expected. Custom ear plugs force the user to wear the devices correctly and to retain hearing protection during activity, thus eliminating improper seating issues as the primary cause o ...

Today’s Warfighter often carries an inordinate load that can lead to injuries and encumbered performance. Equipment is distributed among squad members with little, if any regard for differences in strength and anthropometry. Consequently, the current focus on human-centric design requires a modeling and simulation tool that can reduce the load Warfighters carry and can help distribute equipmen ...

Advanced Materials Technology, Inc (AMTI) responds to the NASA solicitation S2 "Advanced Telescope Systems" under subtopic S2.05, "Optics Manufacturing and Metrology for Telescope Optical Surfaces". The proposed program is aimed at developing large, ultra-lightweight mirror substrate, including membrane optics for very large aperture space telescopes. The novel materials offer considerable weigh ...

The design, development, testing, and maintenance of future complex combat systems will require new approaches and technologies. Present software technologies are limited by the fact that the computing system architectural layers and software components are not integrated. New software technologies are needed to adopt a more integrated view of the system architectural layers and software component ...

The objective of the project outlined in this proposal is to design, build, test, and integrate a Communications Prioritization Tool (CPT) that will prioritize and optimize information exchange. Information exchange requires communication across multiple internal and external network systems utilizing a submarine’s limited external communications capability, multiple internal networked subsystem ...
