N/A

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 ...

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 ...

N/A

N/A

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, ...

N/A

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 SBIR will explore and develop new automated methods for dynamic fault tolerance in defense electronic systems. The research will investigate using the software of digital signal processor operating systems to pro-actively map defective operations to remaining processors. In the past, fault tolerance has relied on passive redundancy to extend operating life. With software, a simple re-start ...

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 ...
