PET Proposal Forms and Guidance
PET projects run on a contract year basis -- each site has a different
contract year (see the bottom of http://www.npac.syr.edu/Projects/DoD/#MSRCs).
Although in principle, we can propose projects at any time, (a) most funds
will be allocated at the beginning of each contract year, and (b) you must
be prepared to show significant deliverables which coincide with Annual
and Mid-Year Reviews, contract anniversaries, etc.
Deliverables must include dates, and you will be expected to deliver
as promised. All sites will be looking increasingly for "return on investment",
so be sure you can deliver something useful for the money you request.
All proposals require budgetary information. Normally I produce
the appropriate spreadsheets based on discussions of the level of effort
required, amount of travel, etc. Please be careful to think about
other special requirements as well. For example, obtaining
accounts on MSRC computers, purchasing software or hardware are non-trivial
processes and can take quite a long time in some cases. You must
account for these in both your timeline and your budget.
Most of these forms ask for a PI or point of contact. Historically,
we have listed David Bernholdt or Geoffrey Fox on all proposals to help
insulate the real project leader from queries that I would have to respond
to anyway. The info is as follows:

Instructions for presentation

Agenda
- Year 2 Annual
Review presentation. NB: The instructions for this
presentation were somewhat different from the instructions for this
year. Please make sure you follow this year's guidelines, and don't
simply mimic the Year 2 presentation!

Additional comments:
You will notice that we have a total of 75 minutes to present summaries
of our seven Year 3 projects. This means about 10 minutes each!
You will also see that the report for each project is pretty well structured
in the instructions below. You should not assume that you will give
your own presentation -- it might be Geoffrey or I instead. To make
up for the short presentation time, we should plan on offering demos where
appropriate -- especially for "web interfaces" and FMS projects.
Please rememeber the audience -- technical people from a wide variety
of areas. The two primary purposes of these presentations should
be (a) to explain to the PET management what we've done, and its value
"to the warfighter" (or at least the DoD researcher), and (b) explain
to our colleagues in other fields what we've done so that they might see
ways to connect up with or build upon our work to the further benefit of
the PET program.
The Programmatic Status section should be brief but complete -- you
want to focus most of your attention on the Technical Progress section.
I will provide the financial status slides in the Programmatic Status section.
There are no hiring issues that need to be addressed. My PET activities
diary (http://www.npac.syr.edu/Projects/DoD/activities.html)
should hopefully have captured all PET-related travel, to jog your memory.
The statements of work for all projects are at http://www.npac.syr.edu/Projects/DoD/projects.html
The contract year for CEWES is 28 March 1998 - 27 March 1999.
I will create and present the 15 minute summary of our Year 4 proposals.
