Opportunity Information: Apply for W911NF 17 S 0004
The Army's Distributed and Collaborative Intelligent Systems and Technology (DCIST) Collaborative Research Alliance (CRA) invites research proposals focused on enhancing intelligent systems to support Soldiers in complex environments through 2040 and beyond. The Army recognizes the potential of these systems to improve military effectiveness by reducing risks to personnel and speeding up decision-making in critical operations.
Over the past decade, the Army Research Laboratory (ARL) has fostered a collaborative model that combines internal and external research into intelligent systems, with an aim to make unmanned systems integral to small military units. The goal is to develop systems that can perceive, learn, adapt, and communicate effectively, acting independently within set limits while ensuring they can work alongside Soldiers.
Looking ahead, future intelligent systems should demonstrate adaptable autonomy and collaborate within diverse teams composed of various agents and Soldiers. These systems will need to thrive in complex, contested environments, quickly process vast amounts of data, and help teams make prompt, informed decisions.
Key elements of the envisioned system include large numbers of heterogeneous agents (both manned and unmanned) operating in a distributed manner across expansive areas and dynamic settings. By integrating a wide range of capabilities and fostering collaborative behaviors, the DCIST initiative seeks to enhance operational effectiveness and situational awareness, ultimately achieving superiority in challenging military scenarios. This opportunity emphasizes integration rather than focusing on individual technologies, aiming for a cohesive command and control architecture that maximizes the collective potential of all systems involved.Apply for W911NF 17 S 0004
