Dept. of Defense Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative This Multidisciplinary Research Program supports university teams whose research efforts intersect more than one traditional science and engineering discipline. Topics include Automated Skills in Cognitive Readiness (#14), Optimizing Cognitive Readiness Under Combat Conditions (#8) and Human Activity Recognition From a Network of Vision Sensors (#35). The awards will be for a base period of three years, with two additional years possible, and at a funding level commensurate with the fields and breadth of research included in the details of each specific proposal. For the FY2001 MURI competition, it is anticipated that awards will range from half a million to about a million dollars per year. More information on the 2001 competition (13 July 2000 deadline) can be found at: www.onr.navy.mil/sci_tech/special/muri2001
