Memorandum
0 This presentation reflects our team's intentions for Data and
Applications (DAS) research at UTD and will continue to evolve and
could change to meet conditions and uncertainties that could be
prevalent in the future.
0 It is the intent of the DAS team to make UTD the premier research
university in DAS for government and industry.
0 DAS research areas and funding projections are based on current
trends and are not intended to be the final version. Values and
numbers given are only estimates and they involve assumptions.
0 Statements made in this presentation are forward-looking
statements. Such statements are not guarantees of future
performance.

(Securing
networks
including secure
protocols and
communications)
Secure Middleware:
Secure object
request brokers
J2EE security
Details in my book #7
Operating systems
(securing resources
such as files,
interposes
communication)
Cross cutting themes:

Other sources are agencies and consortium; e.g. with OGC proposals to NGA
Privacy is mainly Murat’s area with some support from Bhavani
Currently 2m is a line item in the budget for secure grid; 500K/yr to UTD

“Other Sources” : Agencies and Consortia
0 Agencies:
- We are establishing very good connections with AF (AFOSR and
AFRL); also well connected for a MURI for AF. Next step is to
follow up on contacts with Army and Navy
- Also establishing contacts with DHS, DTO, CIA, NSA; we are
identifying areas of mutual interest
0 Consortia
- One consortium we are forming is with NGA, Oracle, Raytheon;
we are working on proposal to NGA on interoperability
- A goal is to establish a UTD-consortium with industry and get
them to join the consortium for a fee. This is one my main
objectives for FY07
0 Congressional Funds
- Once we get started on this, we would like to go after center
scale projects

What other resources do we need?
0 Three more faculty in DAS, Digital Forensics, Data Mining either
assistant or associate professor level from top schools –
- Stanford, CMU, Berkeley for data mining
- Include UIUC, Purdue and GATech for DAS and Digital Forensics
0 Laboratory space to build an open test bed / laboratory so that we
become a showcase for the government in AIS and related areas
- Demonstrate Assured Information Sharing with data (text,
images, etc.) coming from different sources and demonstrate
through semantic web technologies (sort of a war room)
- Will use SAIAL resources as needed
0 Secretary for managing our papers, open source, patents, projects
