Description
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is seeking innovative solutions to support decentralized, distributed, and horizontally integrated command and control for heterogeneous combat agents. The solutions should address modeling, simulation, and software-defined technical approaches to support autonomous, distributed, decentralized operations for heterogeneous agents with disparate technical implementations. The desired capabilities and expertise include defining the problem and current state of the art, advancing the state of the art, team capability, and impact.
Some key points to consider:
• Defining the Problem & Current State of the Art: The focus of the current state of the art has historically addressed the decision-making under uncertainty challenge as a “sense-decide-act” paradigm; this shopping notice seeks solutions that treat the first step in this action chain as “sense/act” and the second step as “incorporate feedback”.
• Advancing the State of the Art (Technical Innovation): Approaches to collaborative control and estimation should enable autonomous, distributed, decentralized operations for heterogeneous agents with disparate technical implementations.
• Team Capability (Expertise and Vision): Experience in distributed tracking, measurement and track fusion at the edge, and delivering autonomy to low compute, constrained bandwidth environments for defense or scalable sensing systems is desired.
• Impact (Defense and Commercial Use Case): Approaches that are extensible between warfighting domains are desired.
