Advanced Research

Chasing HAL: In Pursuit of a Human-Computer Interface

Consider for a moment two people in casual conversation. Each brings to the conversation a vast, enormously versatile and powerful ability: speech!


VLSI: Very Large-Scale Integration Where Small Is Getting Smaller Fast!

If the world is agog in fascination over the Internet, long-haul networks and LANs, the network "inside the box"—those miniature universes of Integrated Circuits (ICs) that rule every computer—are readying a little fascination of their own.


MITRE Research Helps FCC Evaluate Bandwidth Sharing

Radio, television, cell phone, satellite, and other communication signals are transmitted by means of frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum. To reduce interference, specific "bands" of frequencies within that spectrum are allocated to different services and users.


Enabling Enterprise Security with CVE

Mistakes in software code—anything from a typo, a math error, incomplete logic, poor configuration, or incorrect use of a function or command, to an oversight in the requirements guiding the design and coding—can result in security complications.


Human Language Technology

Chasing HAL: The Pursuit of a Human-Computer Interface

 

Aviation Systems

Exploring ADS-B Technology

MITRE's Aviation Center Joins the FAA and the Cargo Airline Association to Improve Airspace Safety and Efficiency.


URET: Air Traffic Control System Reaches Operational Milestone

Until recently, the 800 air traffic controllers at the Indianapolis and Memphis Air Route Traffic Control Centers relied on a fairly limited set of tools to manage flight data and predict conflicting flight paths. But today, as a result of close collaboration between the Centers and MITRE’s Center for Advanced Aviation System Development (CAASD), a new decision-support system, the User Request Evaluation Tool (URET), is available for controllers at both sites.

 

Defense and Intelligence

Stopping Traffic: Anti Drug Network (ADNET)

Over the years, MITRE has increased its involvement in the program—working in the areas of system architecture, long-range planning, technology insertion, advanced prototype development, and proof-of-concept demonstration.


Operational Architectures: The Foundation of C2 System of Systems

A key to information integration across all elements of the military is a common vocabulary that both warfighters and system engineers understand. The MITRE team at Langley Air Force Base in Virginia, in collaboration with MITRE-Bedford and the Electronic Systems Center (ESC), is building this vocabulary, known as architecture.


Computer Security: Vigilance in a Brave New World

As with any other any other society, the Internet is not immune from a societal infrastructure of good guys and bad guys. For those trying to keep the peace, it can be a tough job!


Distributed Simulation Systems Engineering: How to Play War

In the heat of battle, military commanders must make split-second life and death decisions. A moment of hesitation, a small miscommunication can mean disaster for thousands and cost billions of dollars.


Next Generation Combined Navigation and Communications Satellites: GMSP

The Air Force's Space and Missile Systems Command (SMC), Command, Control, Intelligence, Surveillance and Recognizance Center (AFC2ISRC), and Electronic Systems Center (ESC), together with The MITRE Corporation and The Aerospace Corporation, are investigating the future merger of military navigation and communications satellite services.


The IT Warrior: Information Technology on the Battlefield

MITRE is working with the U.S. Army to use Internet technology to enhance effectiveness on the battlefield.


RT CORBA Technology

In operating its Federally Funded Research and Development Centers, and in accordance with its articles of incorporation, the MITRE Corporation supports its customers in the federal government with intellectual property.

 

Federal Sector Modernization

Building a Modern IRS Through Enterprise Architecture

MITRE, in conjunction with the IRS and the prime contractor team, has played a crucial role in guiding the development of the new IRS EA, which will allow the agency to make the transition to a more efficient future while dealing with current business and technological needs.


The Parallels of a Taxing Situation

The new FFRDC, sponsored by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), created an IRS/MITRE partnership focused on modernizing the nation's tax administration system and helping the IRS evolve to a state-of-the-art information technology (IT) enterprise.
