79105S As plasma modeling and simulation become mature, virtual diagnostics can become an option for tokamak research in the fusion energy program. A virtual diagnostics toolset that allows direct comparison of numerical simulation with tokamak measurements would provide an invaluable tool for thorough understanding of tokamak plasmas and further define future necessary diagnostics. This project ...

The goal of the Phase I proof of concept will be to develop the plan for web based system which will allow young children of military service members to communicate with a 3D, interactive, digital simulation of their deployed parent at home on their own PC. Given that about forty percent of U.S. service members are parents, a large number of military children and families stand to benefit from tar ...

Women's need for basic information about breast cancer, and the constraints on the time that health care providers have to educate their patients about the disease, are issues addressed in this proposal. In Phase I, IDI produced and field tested three voice-activated programs that allow women with and without breast cancer to engage in "face-to- face" virtual dialogues with an oncologist, a nurse ...

"Combat systems have historically been developed through a process that focuses on insular subsystems. This process has resulted in severe limitations on system interoperability and technical obsolescence. In addition, excessive life cycle costs areassociated with maintaining multiple configurations to ensure some level of interoperability. To overcome these limitations, new emphasis has been plac ...
