The Estimote Location Beacon^TM is the latest addition to the Hybrid.Beacon DST Group project. This Technical Note will focus on one of the Beacon’s sensors, its ambient light capability.

This report provides a general overview of some of the key themes identified in the area of spoken dialogue systems and their dialogue management capability.

This report describes an algorithm that introduces new discretisation levels to support the representation of low probability values in the context of Bayesian network anomaly detection.

This report contains reviews of software tools, developed by allied countries, that support analysis of Army readiness and sustainability.

A novel wavelet-based sparse signal representation technique is used to separate the main and tail rotor blade components of a helicopter from the composite radar returns. The received signal consists of returns from the rotating main and tail rotor blades, the helicopter body, possible land or sea clutter, and other residual components, which may all overlap in time and frequency; and therefore conventional time and frequency separation techniques cannot be applied. A sparse signal representation technique is now proposed for this problem with the tunable Q wavelet transform used as the dictionary. The proposed algorithm is demonstrated using both simulated and real radar data (X and Ku-band), and is capable of extracting the components of interest successfully.

Using a custom-written FORTRAN computer program, interfaced with an existing two-dimensional boundary element fracture analysis code, the present report provides an extensive set of Beta factor solutions covering a wide range of hole offsets and crack lengths. This work has also led to the derivation of an improved closed-form analytical two-dimensional Beta factor solution for the related case of symmetrical cracks emanating from a central hole in a finite-width strip.

This report describes the design of the ORBAT Data Service and how it is used to manage and share ORBAT data between tools such as ViPA.

These Research Notes form part of a series of notes extracted from work undertaken by Innovation Science in the establishment of Openness and Evolvability assessment Methods and Processes. This set of Research Notes focusses on an introduction to the assessment of Openness. This work was undertaken from the late 1990s to 2007 and focussed on the application to Submarine Combat Systems.
