The US Air Force (USAF) is soliciting emerging technology prototypes from industry, focusing on how to further enable adoption and integration of ‘extreme computing' systems and programmes into USAF operations.

Issued by the Air Force Research Laboratory's (AFRL's) information directorate, the Extreme Computing broad agency announcement (BAA) calls for research and development (R&D) prototypes covering several major technical areas of interest.

The areas include “computational diversity and efficient computing architectures, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) in embedded systems and architectures, computing at the edge, nanocomputing, space computing, and robust algorithms and applications”, according to the 20 September BAA solicitation.

AFRL officials have set aside a total of USD497 million to finance R&D work and prototype development on selected industry offerings submitted to the BAA, officials said in the announcement.
