Come Brainstorm with DARPA at the 2015 TTO Proposers Day

Two-day event encourages proposals for high-risk, high-payoff research with potential to provide overwhelming U.S. military advantage 

outreach@darpa.mil
3/9/2015
DARPA’s Tactical Technology Office (TTO) has scheduled a TTO Proposers Day at DARPA’s offices in Arlington, Va., to be held on Wednesday, April 29, 2015, and Thursday, April 30, 2015, at which potential performers can learn more about TTO’s technical objectives. Those objectives will be outlined in detail in advance of the Proposers Day in a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) calling for executive summaries, white papers and proposals for advanced research, development and demonstration of innovative systems for military missions.

DARPA’s Tactical Technology Office (TTO) seeks to preserve and extend decisive advantages for the U.S. military through innovative systems or systems components that incorporate new or emerging technologies. To help accomplish these goals, TTO has scheduled a TTO Proposers Day at DARPA’s offices in Arlington, Va., to be held on Wednesday, April 29, 2015, and Thursday, April 30, 2015, at which potential performers can learn more about TTO’s technical objectives. Those objectives will be outlined in detail in advance of the Proposers Day in a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) calling for executive summaries, white papers and proposals for advanced research, development and demonstration of innovative systems for military missions.

“This Proposers Day offers participants the chance to brainstorm with DARPA on the very high-risk, high-payoff research that is the hallmark of all DARPA programs,” said TTO Director Brad Tousley. “We’re looking for ideas that show significant promise to enable revolutionary new mission capabilities, significant increases in mission effectiveness and dramatically reduced system costs.”

Advance registration for the Proposers Day is required and available at https://www.signup4.net/Public/ap.aspx?EID=DARP429E. Registration opens on Monday, March 16, 2015, at 11:00 AM Eastern and closes Thursday, March 19, 2015, at 8:00 PM Eastern or when capacity is reached, whichever comes first. Due to space limitations of the conference facility, attendance will be limited to the first 150 registrants, and to no more than two representatives per organization.

The Proposers Day will inform potential contributors about TTO’s strategy and portfolio and the best way to interface with TTO through the BAA. TTO program managers will also share insights about their specific interest areas. Attendees can schedule 1-on-1 meetings with DARPA program managers on either day to discuss shared interests and learn more about working with the Agency. After the event, attendees will have access to registrant contact information to facilitate dialogue among interested parties.

TTO seeks contributors who can apply the Office’s cross-cutting themes (agile systems development, collaborative autonomy and reducing costs) to the following focus areas:

  • Ground Systems: soldier/squad technologies, combat vehicles and tactical operations in complex (urban, forest/jungle and arctic) environments
  • Maritime Systems (surface and undersea): expanded platform performance, cross domain applications, defense of maritime forces and enhanced autonomy
  • Air Systems: novel air vehicles and hypersonic platforms
  • Space Systems: spacecraft technologies, space situational awareness, systems for access, future space operations and propellants and propulsion

To maximize the pool of innovative proposal concepts, DARPA strongly encourages participation in these events and subsequent solicitations by non-traditional performers, including small businesses, academic and research institutions, and first-time government contractors.

The DARPA Special Notice document announcing the Proposers Day and describing the specific capabilities sought is available at http://go.usa.gov/3x7NB. For more information, please e-mail DARPA-BAA-15-27@darpa.mil.

Unreliable software places huge costs on both the military and the civilian economy. Currently, most Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) software contains about one to five bugs per thousand lines of code. Formal verification of software provides the most confidence that a given piece of software is free of errors that could disrupt military and government operations. Unfortunately, traditional formal verification methods do not scale to the size of software found in modern computer systems. Formal verification also currently requires highly specialized engineers with deep knowledge of software technology and mathematical theorem-proving techniques. More

Selected DARPA Achievements

DARPA collaborated with industry on stealth technology.
DARPA’s Stealth Revolution
In the early days of DARPA’s work on stealth technology, Have Blue, a prototype of what would become the F-117A, first flew successfully in 1977. The success of the F-117A program marked the beginning of the stealth revolution, which has had enormous benefits for national security.
DARPA microelectronics gave rise to today's GPS devices.
Navigation in the Palm of Your Hand
Early GPS receivers were bulky, heavy devices. In 1983, DARPA set out to miniaturize them, leading to a much broader adoption of GPS capability.
First rough conceptual design of the ARPANET.
Paving the Way to the Modern Internet
ARPA research played a central role in launching the Information Revolution. The agency developed and furthered much of the conceptual basis for the ARPANET—prototypical communications network launched nearly half a century ago—and invented the digital protocols that gave birth to the Internet.
