22APR2025 UPDATE: Please be advised the Security Classification Guide is available to request. Abstracts Gate 1 Written Abstract Due Date and Time is: Thursday, 24 April 2025, not later than 5:00 PM Eastern Time (ET). Proposers may review previously submitted Abstracts and re-submit as needed (at Proposer discretion) before the due date/time in accordance with the submission requirements outlined in the solicitation. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is soliciting innovative approaches to address challenges in the following technical areas: technologies to allow Command, Control, Computing, Communications, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance and Targeting (C5ISRT) systems (applications and network services) to function without sacrificing application or network utility, while operating under disrupted and degraded conditions. The goal of the FLUID program is to enable Command, Control, Computing, Communications, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance and Targeting (C5ISRT) systems to operate under Degraded, Disrupted, Intermittent, and Limited (DDIL) network conditions. The specific objective of FLUID is to reduce the load (consumed communication capacity) of a C5ISRT system (applications and network services), without sacrificing the overall system utility, so it can continue to operate under extreme capacity degradation: up to 30dB (i.e., 3 orders of magnitude) degradation compared to normal conditions. The FLUID program consists of a single Technical Area, divided into Phase 1A and Phase 1B.
