Galois and Dan Boneh of Stanford offer Talaria, a research project and prototype architecture of a secure, decentralized messaging and transaction platform. Talaria addresses four concerns for such platforms: resilience, scalability, security, and transparency.Talaria uses a decentralized, redundant, and distributed server-side architecture to provide resiliency. Talaria provides scalability by us ...

To meet the U.S. military need for a near-single-photon low-light-level passive imager, a large-format, near-infrared (NIR)-sensitive silicon single-photon avalanche-diode (SPAD) digital imager capable of high-dynamic range, high detection efficiency, and low dark counts will be developed. Toward this end, in Phase I, a 256 x 256-element SPAD imager will be integrated into a camera, characterized, ...

Voice phishing (vishing) has become a serious threat. Attackers pose as trusted callers using impersonation, voice mimicry, speech synthesis, voice conversion technologies, and many other techniques. Once victims believes they are speaking with a t...

The pace of warfare is increasing rapidly with the emergence of numerous asymmetrical threats exhibiting complex interdependencies and shifting alliances. Never has it been more essential to acquire detailed tactical intelligence in time scales in hours ...

In order to maintain our nation’s technological superiority on air, sea and land, we must respond quicker to emerging threats and reduce the cost of major sensing platforms. Every DoD platform developed nowadays contains at least one sensor, whether it be RF, EO/IR, or acoustic. In fact, in a lot of recent developments, the platform is built around the sensor and exists only to support the senso ...

Mobile applications are becoming ubiquitous, appearing in many new situations. Some of these areas have specific requirements pertaining to information flow and device functionality. However, software on these devices is currently unregulated, and there are mechanisms within the mobile operating systems that facilitate unintended and undesirable information sharing as well as granting excessive co ...

This program proposes to demonstrate an ultra-low power design methodology and circuits for digital logic employing advanced dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) for asynchronous NULL Convention Logic (NCL) circuits operating in sub-threshold to super-threshold voltage regimes. The power supply voltages of logic block partitions will be independently set by on-chip voltage controllers based on the data p ...

ADAPTATION OF STATE-OF-THE-ART GIGAHERTZ WAFER PROBE TECHNOLOGY (WPT) FOR USE IN DESIGN, TROUBLESHOOTING, AND PRODUCTION OF MULTICHIP MODULES (MCMS) IS PROPOSED. THESE PROBES ARE CURRENTLY CAPABLE OF TESTING SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES ON WAFERS AT FREQUENCIES UPTO 75 GHZ. PHASE I WILL SHOW THE ELECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL FEASIBILITY OF PROBING MCMS AND SET DIRECTION FOR PHASE II. KEY TASKS INCLUDE ESTABL ...

This project is based on a novel computer graphics technology for man/machine interfaces that relies on machine learning techniques, neural-like networks, and object recognition IU techniques. The key idea is to use a few "example" views of an object or person, to teach the computer to generate other views, under user control. WIth our technology we will develop an interactive (multimedia) interfa ...
