Considered Research& development capabilities and innovation are key factors that help organizations sustain their business by offering products comply with environmental requirements. Business models have become multidimensional, take into account long-term impacts rather than just short-term financial returns issues. So this research aims to learn the range of impact & in dimension su...

Software agent involvement in combat computer systems can provide lightweight, dynamic automation to the warfighter. Current intelligence systems are limited by the abilities of the warfighters to gather, assimilate, report, and execute on intelligence. Through the research and design for the Overshadow system, we found using agents practical for automation capabilities in tactical systems wher...

Trust authority (TA) services are both important infrastructure services for layered protocols requiring the availability of an identification and authentication mechanism such as access control mechanisms and confidentiality services, and can also be viewed as exemplars for the secure and efficient distribution of computations in general. While such general problems have been studied extensive...

The principal contributions of this study are four-fold. First, we propose and illustrate a unifying meta-model architecture for fusing information in sensor-based decision support systems capable of delivering to the user strong inference results in support of tactical decision-making. Second, we demonstrate the feasibility of a completely automated system performing effective estimation of fo...

The long-term objective of this work is to develop methods for rapid assessment of seabed variability combined with detailed localized geoacoustic inversions to characterize the bottom for shallow-water environments. Consideration is given to spatial and temporal variability of water column properties common to shallow-water environments and their impact on inversion results. Advances made in t...

The purpose of this paper is to outline the requirement for data-driven methods for determining optimal geographic locations of United States Department of Defense (DOD) Humanitarian Assistance (HA) resources, including disaster mitigation and preparedness projects. HA project managers and tactical implementers charged with cost-efficient deployment of HA resources are challenged to produce mea...

A dynamic and open service market should be characterised by the frequent appearance of new and diverse services. But in the internet environment, where a significant proportion of the functionality of new services is supported by Customer Premises Equipment (CPE), deployment can be an issue. How can such a diverse range of new services be easily deployed particularly in a heterogeneous environ...

The “Advanced Propellant/Additive Development for Gas Generator” project is a collaborative effort between General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems (GD-OTS) and the Naval Air Warfare Center-Weapons Division (NAWCWD). The objectives of this NGP project are to develop new highly efficient, environmentally acceptable, chemically active fire suppressant capabilities based upon solid propellan...
