Air Force Science and Technology 2030 Workshop- Indiana University

Abstract

Indiana University proposes to provide a forum for the U.S. Air Force and its research community to learn about innovative science ideas that have the potential to fulfill the goals of the AF 2030 Initiative. We will reach across midwest states to draw together faculty, research staff, and technology transfer personnel from institutions of higher education, along with industry research and development professionals, to engage Air Force officials around cutting-edge research ideas to apply toward the goals of the "Air Superiority 2030 Flight Plan." The Air Force Science and Technology 2030 event will be held May 10-11, 2018, at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. We propose a hybrid oral and poster presentation approach for facilitating discussion and engagement around the ideas presented at the workshop. All presenters will be required to submit an abstract. All abstracts will be reviewed by the technical program team. In addition to the oral presentations during technical tracks, time in each topic session breakout will be set aside for a presentation by AFRL program managers to set the context for the oral presentations. At the presenter’s option, posters may be presented at the early evening poster session. The technical tracks at the workshop will endeavor to include particular emerging research topics supporting the technology transition initiative in areas such as: directed energy, hypersonics, cybersecurity, sensors, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and smart materials. All submitted abstracts will be available for publication that can be delivered to the U.S. Air Force, shared and referenced.
