The Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA) invests in high-risk, high-payoff research. This BAA solicits research that explores or demonstrates the feasibility of revolutionary concepts in computation, trust establishment and maintenance, and detecting and deflecting hostile intent. Examples include:
- Approaches to operating securely with imperfect equipment, error-prone users and/or a compromised network.
- Computational methods based on architectures other than digital Turing machines whose attributes are matched to efficient or secure solution of intelligence problems (e.g., optical, analog, biological, brain-based, quantum, or hybrid computing systems).
- New algorithms and protocols that take advantage of quantum entanglement to perform tasks that are inefficient with classical algorithms.
- New approaches to secure transmission of information using optical, electromagnetic, digital packet, chemical, or biological signals.
- Methods (including compilers and programming languages) for performing complicated computations securely, e.g. multi-party secure functional computation and full homomorphic encryption, but with low overhead.
- Detection, classification, and mitigation of attempts by adversaries to compromise safety and security, including, but not limited to penetration and manipulation of electronic infrastructure.
- Novel ideas for technologies enabling energy-efficient computation beyond the efficiency projected for end-of-roadmap silicon, as well as strategies for using existing computing technologies to compute with lower power budgets.
Funding period of 12 months; no stated monetary funding amounts.
