To address the OSDs need for a network defense technology based upon dynamic adaptation of a network or an intruders perception of it, Physical Optics Corporation (POC) proposes a new Fast Network Information Scrambling Technology (FIST). FIST is based on an innovative low-complexity network information scrambler algorithm implemented on low-cost small-scale commercial off-the-shelf hardware compo ...

The final product will include a suite of three app-based puzzle games aligned to national math standards for number sense, algebraic thinking, and problem solving. The games will be designed for use in grade 5 and 6 classrooms where students develop and apply content expertise to solving challenges. The games will include an adaptive engine that assesses and adjusts content based on student level ...

Video Demonstration of the Phase I Prototype: http://youtu.be/vS0XzzPl3iU Purpose: This project will develop and test Happy Atoms, a physical modeling set and an interactive iPad app for use in high school chemistry classrooms. Happy Atoms is designed to facilitate student learning of atomic modeling, a difficult topic for chemistry high school students to master. Standard instructional practice ...

Discharge of nutrients (e.g. phosphorus and ammonia) to surface waters can cause eutrophication and the formation of toxic algal blooms, threatening human health and the environment. However, current phosphorus treatment technologies such as chemical precipitation and conventional biological systems can be costly and ineffective to reliably achieve impending effluent regulatory limits of

The primary goal of the preceding Phase I program was to demonstrate the feasibility of developing commercially viable products from our technological innovation that enables unprecedentedly high energy efficiency generation of super-intense EUV-x-ray beams via Metastable Innershell Molecular State. We have successfully met the Phase I goal by demonstrating the feasibility, and are now ready for f ...

EP Analytics Inc. will develop and commercialize a suite of easy-to-use performance profiling and prediction tools for characterizing the performance and energy efficiency of High Fidelity computer codes.DTRA uses High Fidelity codes to investigate weapon effects phenomenology and techniques for countering Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD).End-to-end High Fidelity simulations in support of the DTR ...

Human-autonomous system interaction is frequently limited by lack of confidence and trust among the (combined) team. In order to have humans collaborate effectively with autonomous systems, improved interfaces and interaction techniques, and frameworks of interaction must be developed that allow for a common perception of the goals, constraints, resources, and other variables relevant to the team ...

Mycotoxins are fungal toxins to which exposure frequently results in incapacitation or even in death. Natural outbreaks of mycotoxin poisoningare common worldwide. Due to its physical-chemical properties, high toxicity and relative ease to produce, mycotoxin T-2 is classified as apotential biological warfare agent. Currently there are no FDA approved medical countermeasures available for T-2 mycot ...

The modern warfighter faces the constant threat of endemic infections, multi-drug resistant bacteria and Biological Warfare Agents. In order to provide accurate front-line treatment that will curtail the overuse of antibiotics, a rapid and robust molecula

Empirical-based mathematical framework and computer algorithms, for representing human perception and cognition processes and limitations, which influence the recognition of salient information about rapidly changing events.
