A computerized Material Information Management System (LIMS) is developed. This intranet-based information management system is a state-of-the-art research project where material engineers working closely with computer and operations research specialists to develop a comprehensive and fully functional Material Information Management System for the New Jersey Departments of Transportation (NJDOT...

In this paper, we detail our current work on a crop management system for irrigated wheat in Egypt. The goal of our work is to develop a system that will address all aspects of crop management including varietal selection, planting/harvest date selection, sowing parameters decisions, insect/disease/weed identification and remediation, and irrigation/fertilization management. The approach we tak...

development of an autonomous weeding machine requires a vision system capable of detecting and locating the position of the crop. it is important for the vision system to be able to recognize the accurate position of the crop stem to be protected during weeding. several shape features of corn plants and common weed species in the location were extracted by means of morphological operations. eff...

Network testbeds are indispensable for developing and testing Information Operations (IO) technologies. Lincoln Laboratory has been developing LARIAT to support IO test design, development, and execution with high-fidelity user simulations. As LARIAT becomes more advanced, enabling larger and more realistic and complex tests, effective management software has proven essential. In this paper, we...

The use of new technologies including Geographic Information Systems (GIS), the Global Positioning System (GPS), Variable Rate Technology (VRT), and Remote Sensing (RS) is gaining acceptance in the present high-technology, precision agricultural industry. GIS provides the ability to link multiple data values for the same geo-referenced location, and provides the user with a graphical visualizat...
