The Air Force Research Laboratory has asked industry to submit white papers detailing ideas for technologies that would work to help warfighters make decisions quickly and automate certain phases of system software development, Military & Aerospace Electronics reported Friday.
John Keller writes the AFRL could spend up to $25 million over the next five years on the Advanced, Trusted, Secure Hardware and Software System Computational Technologies program.
Air Force are interested interest in C4ISR technologies (command, control, communications, computer, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance ) that can perform quantum information processing and support trusted computing architectures, among other functions, Keller reports.
Each paper should be between three-and-five pages and the Air Force will accept the papers at yearly intervals around early March over the program’s duration, the report said.
