This memorandum provides guidelines for using the United States Department of Defense Military Standard MIL-STD-1840, "Automated Interchange of Technical Information," with the Internet electronic mail standards, RFC 822 and RFC 1521. Electronic mail provides a more convenient mechanism that delivery via physical media for certain types and quantities of data. Software already exists to support...

Recently developed technology for automated HF networking has been standardized in the U.S. in MIL-STD-187721C. This protocol suite attempts to provide near 100% connectivity among dispersed HF stations through the use of adaptive routing, employing both frequency and geographic diversity. This paper describes the results of a simulation study of these protocols under realistic message loading,...

 The un-augmented open loop 6-DOF Aerosonde exhibits poor stability and control characteristics in compliance with MIL-F8785C flying quality standards.  As in most classical fixed wing aircrafts, the control inputs to Aerosonde result in pitch, roll and yaw rate responses (rate command characteristics). This has made manual trimming of the UAV, at a given flight condition, with a human pilot-...

Image categorization is a challenging problem when a label is provided for the entire training image only instead of the object region. To eliminate labeling ambiguity, image categorization and object localization should be performed simultaneously. Discriminative Multiple Instance Learning (MIL) can be used for this task by regarding each image as a bag and sub-windows in the image as instance...

With respect to the selection of beta-lactam-resistant variants marked discrepancies between the recently developed cephalosporin HR 810 and other recently developed cephalosporins could be observed: beta-lactam resistant subpopulations did not emerge during a 16-hour culture in the presence of the 20-fold minimal inhibitory concentration in a clinical Enterobacter cloacae isolate (2240/81) in ...

Background: Fluorescence Imitating Brightfield Imaging (FIBI) is a novel alternative microscopy method that can image freshly excised, non-sectioned tissue.We examine its potential utility in dermatopathology. Methods: Five skin samples embedded paraffin blocks were superficially deparaffinized using xylene and ethanol then briefly stained with hematoxylin eosin (H&E). FIBI captured tissue surf...
