This document discusses a novel magneto-optic sensor called the MODE sensor that can be used for non-destructive testing of structural integrity. The MODE sensor uses thin films made of rare earth and transition metal oxides that have high magneto-optic properties, allowing it to detect cracks, fissures, and corrosion in structures. A portable system has been designed using this sensor to allow real-time inspection of bridges, fuel tanks, and other metal structures. The system includes image processing and pattern recognition capabilities to help identify defects.
This document summarizes research on using magneto-optic imaging for non-destructive testing of metal structures. It describes developing new thin-film sensors with improved sensitivity, integrating the sensors and image recognition algorithms into a portable system, and applying a neural network algorithm called SONON to enhance defect detection in images. Laboratory experiments demonstrated the new sensors could detect smaller defects than previous methods. The overall aim is more accurate, automated inspections using portable, wearable equipment.
The document describes a family of microinstruments being developed for use in space missions. The instruments use magneto-optic thin film sensors to perform tasks like non-destructive testing of spacecraft components, detecting electromagnetic fields, monitoring biomagnetic fields, and optical signal processing. Each sensor is based on a proprietary Fe-Ga thin film material and uses polarized light and a spatial light modulator. The sensors can detect magnetic fields as small as 10-7 Oersted and have applications in areas like defect detection, energy generation, medicine, and neural networks. The technology provides advantages over existing non-destructive testing methods by directly imaging defects in real-time with high resolution and low false readings.
This document proposes a technology using magneto-optic thin film sensors to study magnetic fields in deep space through wide-area arrays deployed by spacecraft. Each sensor would measure local magnetic fields and disturbances, with data communicated to reconstruct magnetic activity over large regions. The arrays could also control large space systems through parallel computing principles. The sensors use bismuth-substituted iron-garnet films that respond to magnetic fields through the magneto-optic Faraday effect, providing high sensitivity and domain wall velocity. Deployed arrays would allow unprecedented magnetic mapping beyond spacecraft's direct reach.
1. The document discusses scanning probe microscopy (SPM) techniques such as atomic force microscopy (AFM) and their applications in biomedical research.
2. SPM allows high-resolution imaging of surfaces and can be used to study cell topology, structures like cytoskeletons and membranes, and how electromagnetic fields impact cells.
3. Experiments aim to use AFM to image living cells over time and study phenomena like solitons and fractals at the microscopic level to gain insights into cell behavior and pathology.
The document describes a proposed system for detecting land mines using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) equipped with multiple sensors, including magneto-optic thin-film sensors (MODE sensors) and video cameras. The system would analyze sensor data using pattern recognition software to identify locations of land mines. A key challenge is developing a modular system that can efficiently integrate different sensors onto a small UAV. The document outlines designs for a modular payload assembly and embedded computer system that could process sensor data and transmit it to ground control in real-time. Initial testing of MODE sensors would be conducted on a laboratory workbench to evaluate their effectiveness at detecting ferromagnetic objects like land mines from aerial images.
This document proposes an Intelligent Data Entry and Acquisition (IDEA) system to help with on-site highway maintenance and construction. It describes an architecture using wearable computers and sensors to collect asset data in the field, process it using pattern recognition, and upload it to centralized databases. Field workers could use tools like digital notepads, cameras, and GPS to gather location-tagged images, notes and condition reports on assets, which the IDEA system would then analyze and integrate into maintenance planning databases back at the office. The goal is to streamline data collection and improve safety, productivity and data quality for tasks like infrastructure inspections.
This document outlines a proposal for a 6-month, $150,000 project to develop concepts of operations (CONOPS) for a Regional Environmental Biothreat Detection Network (REDBIONET). The network would integrate existing biodefense sensing systems and new diagnostic tools to enable early detection of biothreats through wildlife monitoring. Key components include adapting the RODS predictive system and integrating it with GITI's knowledge management tools. The proposal also describes integrating rapid diagnostic technologies, evaluating sensor placement options, and demonstrating a field-ready prototype to identify and respond to biothreats. Personnel are identified with relevant experience in pattern recognition, bioinformatics, and emergency response networks.
The document discusses a proposed mobile early warning system called Nomad EyesTM to detect and prevent nuclear terrorism. It argues that terrorism relies on networks and readily available technology. Radiation attacks are attractive due to their ability to cause social and economic disruption even without loss of life. The system would use mobile and wireless sensors to detect suspicious movements and shipments of radioactive and conventional materials. Data would be analyzed using various techniques like sensor fusion, graph theory, and gaming to identify potential threats while also providing emergency response capabilities. The goal is to develop a flexible, low-cost, and disruptive counterterrorism system.
This document discusses the Nomad Eyes project, which aims to use a network of mobile sensors and the general public to detect and prevent nuclear terrorism through early warning. The project would distribute radiation sensors that can attach to mobile phones to collect and transmit data. Games and advertising would encourage public participation. Collected data would be analyzed using graph theory and Bayesian methods to identify potential terrorist planning and threats. In the event of an attack, the network could quickly notify the public and route them to safety. The current status describes sensor prototypes, public engagement design, and network/database software development. The goal is to move terrorism prevention and response capabilities out of secure facilities and into the hands of the general public.
Global InfoTek will develop concepts of operations (CONOPS) for an Emergency Mobile Phone Incident Reporting System (EMPIRES) that leverages mobile phones and infrastructure to collect and share situational data from citizens during crises. The 6-month project will cost $90,000. Global InfoTek will conceptualize a system using mobile phones to collect incident reports, environmental effects data, and real-time audio/video from citizens. They will integrate existing programs and technologies to disseminate this data to emergency responders through an integrated display. Global InfoTek will focus on communication challenges faced by responders during crises when infrastructure may be unavailable and develop solutions using emerging technologies like sensors and GPS on mobile
The document describes the I3BAT and Nomad Eyes systems, which are designed to incorporate terrorist thinking and tactics to help prevent terrorist attacks. Nomad Eyes would involve widely distributing sensors and collecting data using mobile phones and other devices. This data would then be analyzed using statistical and mathematical models to identify patterns that could link people, objects, and events and help forecast terrorist plans and activities. The goal is for the general public to help detect threats through passive and anonymous data collection using everyday devices to supplement formal security and law enforcement efforts.
This document discusses the concept of ecosymbiotics, which aims to integrate economic profitability with environmental and social sustainability. It argues that education, basic research, environmental protection, and economic development are interdependent and should be viewed holistically. Ecosymbiotics proposes developing commercial innovations through collaborative, interdisciplinary research that also benefits education and future generations. The goal is to move beyond dependence on non-profit funding and directly link basic scientific progress with business and capital growth in a mutually sustainable way.
The document outlines a seminar on how quantum events may play a role in coherent biomolecular systems. It discusses several topics: (1) introducing motivations around reconciling quantum mechanics and relativity in biological systems; (2) exploring quantum network dynamics and structures like solitons that could provide stability; and (3) investigating chiral and tensegrity-stable solitons in higher dimensions that may model quantum networks sustaining topological identities. The goal is to better understand intracellular control and signaling at the quantum scale.
The document outlines a theory of topological process dynamics and its applications to biosystems. It discusses how a stable spacetime emerges from a quantum process flux described as a "spin glass" of topological 3-surface regions. Below certain length scales, p-adic numbers and an ultrametric topology are hypothesized to apply, with favored p-adic primes corresponding to physically important length scales like those seen in biological structures. The length scale hypothesis proposes lengths scales of L(p) = sqrt(p) * L0 that match observations of elementary particles, cells, viruses, and nanobacteria. P-adic topology is proposed below these scales with continuous classical spacetime emerging at larger scales.
This document summarizes a study on pattern recognition and learning in networks of coupled bistable units. The network is composed of N oscillators moving in a double-well potential, with pair-wise interactions between all elements. Two methods are used for training the network: (1) constructing the coupling matrix using Hebb's rule based on stored patterns, and (2) iteratively updating the matrix to minimize error between applied and desired patterns. Graphs show the learning rate converges as mean squared error and coupling strengths decrease over iterations.
This document discusses a hypothesis that molecular dynamics across neural membranes and cytoskeletal structures provide a matrix for self-organized behavior and information processing in the brain. Specifically:
1) Patterns of molecular activity may form stable solitons or "chaotons" capable of storing information over time, providing a basis for learning, memory, and consciousness.
2) These solitons could behave in a self-similar way across complexes of neurons operating within synapto-dendritic field activity.
3) Atomic force microscopy may help experimentally confirm theoretical models of these solitons and emergent structures in subcellular processes.
Evolutionary IED Prevention 09 2006 Updated W Comments Jan2010martindudziak
The document provides an overview of a presentation given at a 2006 conference on evolutionary detection and prevention of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and related terrorist weapons. The presentation discusses the need for detection systems that can (1) think ahead of terrorists rather than just react, (2) detect multiple substances in diverse environments, and (3) be usable by non-technical users. It also examines challenges like evolving weapon technologies and effectiveness. The presentation proposes solutions like a single, reconfigurable detection technology that can integrate with existing systems.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
