 E-Mail RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. -- Joint Army- and Air Force-funded researchers have taken a step toward building a fault-tolerant quantum computer, which could provide enhanced data processing capabilities. Quantum computing has the potential to deliver new computing capabilities for how the Army plans to fight and win in what it calls multi-domain operations. It may also advance materials discovery, artificial intelligence, biochemical engineering and many other disciplines needed for t...

Jonathan Sholtis, ICF U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command’s Army Research Laboratory has awarded ICF a new task order valued at up to $53 million. The contract calls for ICF to expand the delivery of cyber research, development and technology services. It has a term of 5 years, including a 1-year base and four option years. The agreement was awarded under the multiple-award Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Combat Systems, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissanc...

A new technology will speed up development of 3D-printed components for a variety of Army applications.

Squids remarkable ability to tune both the color and the brightness of their iridescence comes down to a subtle but powerful mechanism.

A new path toward sending and receiving information with single photons of light has been discovered by an international team of researchers led by the University of Michigan. Their experiment demonstrated the possibility of using an effect known as nonlinearity to modify and detect extremely weak light signals, taking advantage of distinct changes to a quantum system to advance next generation computing. Today, as silicon-electronics-based information technology becomes increasingly throttle...

Exposure to Blasts in War and Training May Increase Risk of Alzheimers in Troops, Study Finds U.S. Marines fire a MK-153 Shoulder-Launched Multipurpose Assault Weapon in a live-fire squad attack range during exercise Fuji Viper 21.1 at Combined Arms Training Center, Camp Fuji, Japan, on Dec. 10, 2020.

AUSTIN, Texas (February 24, 2021) - The Army Applications Laboratory (AAL), Network-Cross Functional Team (N-CFT) and the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM) C5ISR (Command, Control, Computers, Communications, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance) Center are asking small U.S. companies for proposals to provide more secure communications to Soldiers operating in contested environments. The Low-Cost, Low Probability of Detection (LC/LPD) Sm...

Soldiers Exposed to Blasts at Risk for Alzheimers by Hannah Joy on  March 1, 2021 at 2:04 PM Soldiers who are exposed to long-term military explosives are at a higher risk for developing Alzheimers disease, reveals a new Army-funded study identifies how those blasts affect the brain. Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke in collaboration with the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command, now known as DEVCOM, the Army Research Laboratory, and the...

5 RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. -- A U.S. Army-funded researcher who developed a mathematical theory for complex systems such as networks, power grids and the human brain, received a prestigious scientific award. A new approach for solving dynamic problems will allow advancements, predictability and system protection in a wide range of fields, including network security, fluid dynamics, soft robotics and energy-efficient design, researchers said. Igor Mezić, professor in the Dep...
