I hadn't really been following this thread -- other than to think what a
wonderful application of designers' skills it would be! -- until I
picked up the current issue of the Syracuse alumni magazine,
which mentions a project at its "Center for Really Neat Research" (is
that a great name, or what?????
It works primarily on designs for the handicapped).
David Warner, the CRNR founder, and several colleagues, will work on a
landmine detection system in cooperation with DARPA's Distribution
Robotics Program. Tiny, 2-5 cm robots, will search for them, so people
can stay far enough away.

APPLYING INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY TO IMPROVE QUALITY OF LIFE
Quality of life has become an issue of increasing concern among health
care providers. Off the shelf technologies exist that can be modified or
adapted to enhance human performance in every day life. Through the
collaboration of a multi-disciplinary group of physicians, engineers,
clinicians and patients we are finding creative ways to increase the
quality of life.
My Commitment
The primary role that I play is one of a general medical-scientist liaison
between the medical community and high-tech development companies. My role
is to provide an application assessment of new technologies for possible
medical and educational uses. My experience in the area of interactive
human computer interaction combined with my experience in clinical
medicine allows me the unique opportunity to facilitate the rapid exchange
of relevant information between the high-tech industry and the medical
community in general. I am particularly active in technology transfer of
aerospace and other defense derived technologies to the fields of health
care and education. Specifically: advanced instrumentation for the
acquisition and analysis of medically relevant biological signals;
intelligent informatic systems which augment both the general flow of
medical information and provide decision support for the health care
professional; public access health information databases designed to
empower the average citizen to become more involved in their own health
care; and advanced training technologies which will adaptively optimize
interactive educational systems to the capacity of the user.

CBD ISSUE DATE: 10/05/99 SECTION: Procurements FSC CODE: A
TITLE: ADVANCED SIMULATION, HUMAN-SYSTEMS INTERFACES & INTEGRATION
TECHNOLOGIES FOR NEXT GENERATION C4ISR SYSTEMS & COMMAND CENTERS
SOL N66001-99-X-6906
DUE N/A
POC David W. Jenkins, (619) 553-6588
The Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center -- San Diego (SSC-SD)
herewith
releases Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) # N66001-99-X-6906, pursuant
to
the provisions of FAR 6.102(d)(2) and 35.016. SSC-SD invites proposals
for
defining and developing next generation C4ISR systems and Command
Centers.
This includes innovative approaches to defining and documenting next
generation C4ISR concepts and Command Center abstractions, approaches
to
next generation C4ISR system architectures and Command Center
architectures, research, development, test, and evaluation of advanced
technologies in the areas of battlespace visualization and display
engineering, human-system interfaces, collaboration, decision support,
distributed information management, advanced simulation, and seamless
access to global information. Proposals that support the research of
technologies suitable for military use, and evaluate transition
potentials, are also invited. Research and development prototypes will
be
demonstrated and may be integrated with other advanced concepts or
advanced technologies; this requires knowledge of project management
and
system engineering support principles. Offerors are invited to submit
white papers that will be reviewed to identify valuable research for
further consideration. If a proposed area of research and the
accompanying
research approach is considered potentially valuable, and within
funding
limits, a full proposal will then be requested. Instructions for the
preparation and submission of full proposals will be provided with that
request. It should be noted that certain proposals are not appropriate
under a BAA. Engineering and technical service proposals are not
appropriate. These usually involve the application of effort toward a
broadly identified task, rather than delivery of an end item, such as a
final research report. In addition, some projects are too mature to be
performed under BAA authority; as a general rule efforts subsequent to
validation of technology are too mature. A web site has been
established
which contains the text of this BAA, and instructions for submission of
a
white paper. All answers to questions and any additional information
pertaining to this BAA will be posted on this web site as available. It
is
the responsibility of any potential offeror to monitor this web site
for
any additional information. The web site address is
http://magellan.spawar.navy.mil/N66001-99-X-6906/ . White papers are
limited to three pages, including all figures, tables, attachments and
the
estimated annual schedule and cost. Reviewers will not load software or
simulations in the conduct of white paper reviews. However, web sites
containing concise simulations or other information not readily
represented in the static format of a document may be hyperlinked from
the
white paper. Innovative approaches to information presentation are
encouraged. White papers shall include the name, address, voice phone
number, facsimile number, and email address of the proposing
organization
and the principal point of contact. The white paper shall also include
the
names of other organizations participating as part of the research
team.
For readability, most text based information should be in 12 point
Times
New Roman, though other fonts and sizes may be utilized as necessary in
tables, headings, drawings, other art, and etc. White papers shall be
produced using Microsoft Word, Excel and/or Power Point; or may be
submitted as Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) files. SSC-SD will acknowledge
receipt
of white papers, and will notify offerors whether a full proposal is
requested. All white papers and proposals shall be UNCLASSIFIED. The
government's preference is to obtain unlimited rights (as defined by
DFARS
252.227-7013 "Rights in Technical Data -- Noncommercial Items" and
252.227-7014 "Rights in Noncommercial Computer Software and
Noncommercial
Computer Software Documentation") to the results and products of this
research. Any proposed research that will restrict the government's
rights, and the degree, to which those rights will be restricted, shall
be
clearly delineated in the white paper. Evaluation of white papers and
full
proposals will be performed utilizing the following criteria listed in
descending order of importance: 1) Overall scientific and technical
merit;
2) Potential contribution and relevance to the SSC-SD mission in
relation
to meeting the objectives of the Advanced Simulation, Human-Systems
Interfaces & Integration Technologies for Next Generation C4ISR Systems
and Command Centers efforts; 3) Capabilities and related experience of
the
offeror; 4) Plans and capabilities for technology transition; and 5)
Cost
realism. Full proposals will be considered to be either selectable or
non-selectable based on their evaluation in accordance with the
criteria
herein. Offerors will be promptly notified of the evaluation results.
Only
selectable proposals will be considered for funding. Not all proposals
deemed selectable will be funded. Decisions to fund selectable
proposals
will be based on funds availability, overall scientific and technical
merit, and potential contribution to the SSC-SD mission. Proposals may
be
considered for funding for a period of up to one year from notification
of
selectability. The Government reserves the right to select for award
all,
some, or none of the proposals received. Proposals identified for
funding
may result in a procurement contract, grant, cooperative agreement, or
other transaction depending upon the nature of the work proposed, the
required degree of interaction between the parties, and other factors.
Prior to submittal of white papers, technical inquiries can be made to:
Doug Hardy, Code D441 Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center 53410
Systems
Street, Building 606, Room 313 San Diego, CA 92152-7560 Email:
hardydr@spawar.navy.mil Responses to inquiries will be by email or
telephone. This BAA will remain open for submission of white papers for
a
period of one year from the date of initial publication in the Commerce
Business Daily. A one-year extension to the submission timeframe may be
announced via further publication in the Commerce Business Daily. It is
anticipated that any awards will be from one to five years. Proposals
should be structured accordingly. All responsible sources capable of
satisfying the government's needs may submit a white paper proposal
that
shall be considered. Historically Black College and Universities (HBCU)
and Minority Institutions (MI) are encouraged to submit proposals and
join
others in submitting; however, no portion of this BAA will be set aside
to
HBCU and MI participation due to the impracticality of reserving
discrete
or severable areas of research for exclusive competition among these
entities. Questions of a contractual nature should be directed to the
