Official Description

The performance and survivability of Department of War (DoW) and space systems, especially those operating in space environments, are critically affected by radiation. Radiation testing of parts are major cost and schedule drivers for DoW and space systems. This topic seeks to conduct a rigorous statistical analysis of long-term radiation trends and their impact with the goal of either reducing or justifying the need for rigorous and costly radiation testing. DoW systems must determine a part’s ...

Open Topic for Historical Radiation Data Analysis for Enhanced Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) Modeling and Prediction

This Q&A clarifies that proposers have significant flexibility: they can focus on any radiation environment subset with deep validation, use publicly available datasets, pursue either test-reduction or test-prioritization approaches (or both), and demonstrate success through multiple valid metrics (accuracy, test-planning utility, trend discovery, or failure explanation)—enabling diverse solution pathways rather than a single prescribed approach.
