Ascend Integrated provided an overview to the 561st Joint Tactics Squadron (JTS) of the Atlassian Confluence suite. Through this, Ascend Integrated is proposing to implement, configure, and deploy the Atlassian Confluence (Confluence) suite, a commercial, off the shelf (COTS) product providing users the capability to collaborate, share, create, read, and update content securely and effectively in ...

THERE ARE MANY COMBAT VEHICLE AND EQUIPMENT APPLICATIONS WHERE AN AIR-COOLED HEAT EXCHANGER MUST OPERATE IN AN EN- VIRONMENT WITH HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF SAND AND DIRT IN THE AMBIENT AIR. CONVENTIONAL COMPACT HEAT EXCHANGERS ARE SSUS- CEPTIBLE TO CLOGGING OF COOLING FINS. ONE APPROACH THAT MAY OFFER SIGNIFICANT ADVANTAGES AND INCREASED PERFORMANCE IN THAT OF A FLUIDIZED BED HEAT EXCHANGER. THE PROP ...

This project is designed to deposit coatings of the Thallium based high temperature superconducting (HTS) compound, T1-2-2-2-3, onto substrates with complex geometries, appropriate for use as magnetic shields in DC cryogenic current comparators (CCC's). In this first phase, MSI will coat MgO substrates with the length, diameter, and internal passages appropriate to magnetic shields for CCC design ...

WE PROPOSE TO DEVELOP A NEW CLASS OF OPTICAL EMITTING DEVICE FOR USE IN COMPUTER OPTICAL INTERCONNECT SYSTEM. THE NEW DEVICE IS AN ELECTROABSORPTION MODULATOR-SUPER-LUMINESCENT DIODE (EAM-SLK). THIS DEVICE DOES NOT SUFFER FROM THE SHORT COMINGS OF SEMICONDUCTOR LASERS SUCH AS, VARIABLE THRESHOLD, DIFFICULTY OF INTEGRATION AND SUCCEPTABILITY TO MODEL NOISE. THESE THREE SHORTCOMINGS ARE ELIMINATED I ...

Recent changes in DOD acquisition policy have led to the promulgation of MIL-STD-2O36 as the governing standard for shipboard ysurface and submarine¿ electronic systems In addition to defining a standard environmental requirements baseline MIL-STD-2O36 establishes a preference for the use of co-ercial off the shelf yCOTSy equipment where such equipment meets system requirements FDI proposes to ...

NAVY DECISION MAKERS NEED AN ACCURATE AND RELIABLE ASW/C3I MODEL TO EVALUTE THE WARFIGHTING SUPPORT PROVIDED BY PRESENT AND FUTURE ASW COMMAND, CONTROL, COMMUNICATIONS AND INTELLIGENCE SYSTEMS. THE PRIORITY OF THIS REQUIREMENT IS INCREASING AS THE NAVY CONSIDERED ALTERNATIVE ARCHITECTURES FOR COUNTERING SOVIET ADVANCED SUBMARINES. THE ASW/C3I MODEL WILL PROVIDE VALUABLE INSIGHTS INTO THE INPACTS O ...

The object of this work is to continue a program to build an atomic beam clock using laser trapped and cooled Cs atoms. It is hoped that this clock will be at least two orders of magnitude more accurate than conventional Cs clocks. At present an internally funded research and development program is underway to construct a laser cooled atomic trap for Cs atoms. In the proposed research, as these Cs ...

The use of fibrous composites has greatly increased in the Navy. These composites have introduced challenging problem in process manufacturing of these materials. Dielectric sensors as well as ultrasonic embedded wave guides have been successful in cure monitoring; however, they have two severe handicaps: 1. Placement is limited to trimmings since the inclusions weaken the material; 2. The region ...

Quality computational tools have been available for solving exterior electromagnetic coupling problems and for solving circuit problems for many years. The desire to extend this conventional analysis to the solution of interior coupling problems with internal circuitry is the principle focus of the work proposed here. The component technology elements required to integrate the EM analysis of coupl ...
