BONN Corporation (BONN) has chosen to concentrate on a methodology that computes an optimal target search in near-real-time, with the capability of accommodating user-definable optimality based upon time / pathlength, probability of target detection target value, and survivability in a dense threat environment. This methodology will be extensible to address multiple airborne platforms and multipl ...

Delta Data Systems, Inc. (DDS), a key developer and supplier of GIS technology to clients such as NASA, COE, NOS, etc. and Neptune Sciences, Inc. (NSI), a developer of the Navy Surf Model and other nearshore related products, will combine their expertise to develop a Marine Geographical Information Systems. Presently, no one method exists to adequately assess the coastal environment. Large datab ...

The proposal program will demonstrate packaging technology in an optical interconnect device consisting of at least 64 parallel interconnections between stages. The packaging will allow a 1 GHz bandwidth, micro-optoelectronic switch to survive in a 50 g (gravity) shock and vibration environment. OptiComp's enabling GaAs "Smart" optoelectronic interconnect modules will be used in the proposed opt ...

The principal objective of this proposal is to develop a design for the packaging of the high performance optoelectronic computer (HPOC) module. In addition, we will design the optical interconnect section of the HPOC module, and fabricate and test HPOC module sub-assemblies. A design will be developed for a structure which uses solder engineering to combine the HPOC module components (VCSEL, ar ...

The primary goal of this program is to develop intelligent software mechnaisms which enhance information discovery using a high capacity, scalable, optoelectronic information architecture. By exploiting a high performance optoelectronic computing (HPOC) module platform as a data "processing engine", innovative software mechanisms will be investigated which can manipulate data/knowledge ...

The primary problem to be addressed by this SBIR request is the need for development of specific ion sensors that can work reliably in sub-freezing environments to allow unmanned dataloggers to accumulate data on a down-loaded or real-time basis. This would involve re-designing the reference side of the electrode (half-cell) to be rugged enough to survive the conditions imposed upon it while also ...

Seemann Composites, Inc. (SCI), as the prime contractor, Materials Science Corporation (MSC) and McDonnell Douglas Phantom Works as subcontractors, propose to develop an advanced composite structure which will be significantly lighter, tougher and more reliable than previous hull structures and which can be built at a lower cost than conventional construction. Furthermore, problems with quality ...

We propose starting a commercial Internet website that will provide access to a variety of computer codes for the purpose of analyzing rocket engines and rocket engine components. Users will be able to execute well-maintained computer codes over the Internet. The codes found on the website will be an improvement on what is currently available since they will be maintained and upgraded by a conso ...

This proposal addresses a design and fabrication investigation of a volume photorefractive optical memory system. The technology supports integration into two dimensional (2D) arrays of reconfigurable optical interconnect pixels for high performance digital processing applications such as high speed telecommunications and computing. The proposed volume memory array will be integrated into the hi ...
