Arca Systems proposes to initiate the design and development of an intrusion detection system for the GCCS LES (and similar environments). Many current intrusion detection tools are Unix-based, focused on a single host or on a generally homogeneous distributed environment. The notional GCCS LES environment makes extensive use of distributed architecture, using support from the COTS technologies ...

Mountain Wave, Inc. proposes to investigate the development of an automated network security management product that would allow personnel within an Information Technology (IT) organization to combine information from heterogeneous sources into an integrated application that captures business processes and automates tasks to "prevent" potential security violations. This product will: be "extensib ...

Amer Ind, Inc. proposes to fulfill the requirements of DARPA SB962-058, Synchronous Collaboration Glueware, Tools, and Metrics, with a comprehensive approach that focuses on the implementation of synchronous editing of documents with embedded objects, including multimedia objects by: transparently integrating a file format converter with a server-based document repository; using one of those forma ...

This Phase I project has two primary objectives. The first objective is to develop an engineering model of Resonant Tunneling Devices (RTD) to be implemented in AIM-Spice, a commercial software package running under Windows 95/NT. The development of a reliable device model is a prerequisite for the design and production of any semiconductor device technology. The RTD model will be a semi-empiri ...

THE PROBLEM AREA WE PROPOSE TO INVESTIGATE IS THE APPLICATION OF PARALLEL PROCESSING ALGORITHMS AND TECHNOLOGY TO COORDINATE ANTISUBMARINE WARFARE (ASW) OPERATIONS. OUR TECHNICAL OBJECTIVES ARE TWO-FOLD: 1) TO CONSIDER A SPECIFIC EXAMPLE OF DISCRETE NONLINEAR FILTERING, ANALYZE THE PARALLELISM IN THE DISCRETE FILTERING ALGORITHM, AND DEVELOP NEW ALGORITHMS FOR PARALLEL PROCESSORS COUPLED WITH A TH ...

DECISION SCIENCE CONSORTIUM, INC. (DSC) PROPOSES TO ENGAGE IN AN INNOVATIVE RESEARCH PROGRAM TO DESIGN AND IMPLEMENT AN ADVERSARIAL PLANNING SYSTEM THAT IS ABLE TO REASON ABOUT THE PERSISTENCE OVER TIME OF AN ADVERSARY'S BELIEF AND INTENTIONS. SPECIFICALLY, THIS SYSTEM WILL UTILIZE EITHER A NONMONOLITHIC SITUATIONAL OR TEMPORAL LOGIC TO DETERMINE THE EXTENT TO WHICH AN ADVERSARY'S PRESENT BELIEFS ...

A PROJECT IS PROPOSED TO INVESTIGATE THE FEASIBILITY OF COMBINING A PHASE-CHANGE NON-LINEAR OPTICAL MATERIAL WITH A PHOTOREFRACTIVE MATERIAL IN THIN LAYERS TO ACHIEVE A THREE DIMENSIONAL MASS STORAGE MEDIUM. ORGANIC COMPOUNDS POSSESSING GOOD POLARIZABILITY ALONG WITH COMPOSITION CONDUCIVE TO PHASE CHANGE MECHANICS WILL BE TESTED FOR SHG AND PHASE CHANGE ABILITY, THEN PREPARED IN THIN FILMS ON PHOT ...

RGI, THROUGH ITS ARRANGEMENTS WITH SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION, PROPOSES TO DEMONSTRATE THROUGH ANALYSIS THE FEASIBILITY OF USING MODIFIED VERSIONS OF THE OMAR (OPTICAL MICROWAVE APPROACH AND RANGING) SYSTEM TO ENHANCE THE RELIABILITY OF RPVS. OMAR, CURRENTLY UNDER DEVELOPMENT AS A PRECISION, LOW VISIBILITY LANDING SYSTEM FOR AIRCRAFT (WITH EMPHASIS ON HELICOPTERS), LENDS ITSELF ...

IT IS PROPOSED HERE TO DEVELOP A METHOD FOR PREDICTION OF TRANSITION ON NASP (NATIONAL AERO-SPACE PLANE) CONFIGURATION AND FOR THE CONTROL/ENHANCEMENT OF SUPERSONIC COMBUSTION IN THE SCRAMJET. THE METHOD IS BASED UPON LINEAR STABILITY ANALYSIS WITH NONEEQUILIBRIUM EFFECTS WHICH TYPIFY THE BOUNDARY LAYERS ON NASP AIRFRAME AND THE MIXING LAYER IN THE SCRAMJET. THESE THREE-DIMENSIONAL VISCOUS LAYERS, ...
