THE VERY POLITICALLY SENSITIVE NATURE OF NUCLEAR WARFARE WOULD PRESUPPOSE THAT THE ABILITY OF THE COMMANDER TO PLAN FOR THE USE OF WEAPONS OF THIS TYPE WOULD CREATE THE NEED FOR A METHOD WHICH WOULD BE AS FOOL-PROOF AS POSSIBLE. EARLY WEAPONS WERE DESIGNATED STRATEGIC WEAPONS WHILE LATER DEVELOPED WEAPONS WERE CALLED TACTICAL. IT WAS WITH THE EVOLUTION TO TACTICAL WEAPONS THAT EXTENSIVE POSITIVE C ...

A SHALLOW WATER SONAR SYSTEM WILL BE DESIGNED AND ANALYZED USING A UNIQUE RAY-BASED SHALLOW WATER PROPAGATION AND REVERBERATION MODEL. THE BASELINE CANDIDATE SYSTEM IS A PLANAR ARRAY SONAR IN A VDS CONFIGURATION. THE ARRAY USES LIGHTWEIGHT CYLINDRICAL TRANSMITTING ELEMENTS AND DIFAR RECEIVING ELEMENTS TO ACHIEVE EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE IN A COMPACT CONFIGURATION. ITS SIZE AND WEIGHT ARE APPROPRIATE ...

Throughput has been an issue for embedded and stand-alone real-time systems for many years. Systems rarely exhibit the performance necessary for successful operation in the field without significant rework to reduce time requirements after the initial software development. SPS proposes Project Tempus to develop a software measure that predicts the performance of a real-time system early in its d ...

U.S.M.C. CURRENT MUST MAINTAIN TWO SEPARATE SYSTEMS FOR MID AIR REFUELING; A LOW SPEED SYSTEM FOR HELICOPTERS AND A HIGH SPEED SYSTEM FOR JETS. THIS STUDY PROPOSES A RETROFIT TO EACH SYSTEM FOR DUAL PURPOSE FUNCTIONS.
