"21st Century Systems, Inc. (21CSI) proposes to continue its research and realization of an agent-based decision support system, EXLOG21, for logistics and maintenance operations. In Phase I we researched the base theoretical underpinnings for expeditionarylogistics and constructed a convincing autonomic logistics (AL) system prototype (interfaced to a notionally simulated subset of an instrumente ...

"In response to Small Business Innovative Research solicitation BMDO02-016, 21CSI is pleased to propose the development of a proof-of-concept sensor intranet and decision aid software application that ties disparate and legacy sensors into a net. Ourconcept, Sensor-AEDGE, will be built from the bottom up to support the netting of sensors into a cohesive, complementary unit. It will employ intell ...

A number of applications in other commercial as well as military sectors require that multiple distributed data sources be consulted when a specific need arises, and that the results of these consultations be presented to the user. Often, these results are complex and involve multiple documents. Presentation of such results involves automatically generating browsable documents so that the user c ...

In this proposal, we will develop a uniform framework, called a multimedia mediator, for integrating and querying multimedia data as well as heterogenous data located on a distributed network. The multimedia mediator will use distributed computing technology to scale up to real-world applications. We will develop graphical query languages and query engines whereby an end-user can query a system ...

We shall deliver an information exploitation demonstration prototype simulatirsg actual rlata exploitation. Within this prototype we shall deliver five different types of capabilities. The first three capabilities are data mining tools. These tools shall demonstrate the capability of identifying electronic patterns or f ingerprints in data, relationships between data, and visualizations of such ...

We propose a plan sentinel prototype consisting of three components. The first component is the development of a plan mining tool which identifies and computes false or missing assumptions and deviations to plans and time phased tasks. The second component, the annotated database, computes plans which the plan mining tool access and parses into a logical annotated rule set. Finally, MAVIS, a to ...

AbTech will survey the hardware and software available to determine what capabilities should be included in an automated office assistant software suite. A language parsing and encoding system in ANN (a leading semantic understanding software package) will be used to parse and encode ASCII output resulting from a voice recognition system such as DragonDictate. The ASCII output from the voice recog ...

AbTech Corporation proposes to apply its unique Statistical Network ModelingTM technology to develop a non contact prognostic assessment tool that 1) acquires, processes, and analyzes electronic radiated signal data, 2) learns the expected characteristics and patterns of specific radiated signals measured from microelectronic semiconductor devices using AbTech's statistical network modeling techno ...

The human brain processes information from several sensors of the body and extracts meaningful information about the environment. Likewise, the ability to fuse multilevel, multifaceted processes dealing with the association, correlation, and combination of data from single or multiple sources is desired to attain state and identity estimates in a timely manner. However, current data fusion techniq ...
