*** Surface Warships 2012:
Exploring
the Future of Global Surface Combatant Fleets
In
a highly uncertain strategic environment, the ability to use the majority of
the world's surface, and reach most of its population makes maritime forces
those of choice for the world's main actors and their allies – and surface
warships are key components of such forces. Their need to police the oceans
against the dual threats of terrorism and piracy make surface warship
programmes a crucial and indispensable part of the future maritime environment.
Surface
Warships will provide the ideal environment for industry and naval professional
to discuss innovative future designs and the need to keep current vessels
battle ready through capability upgrades and refits.

17.) Algorithm Developer, MIT Lincoln Laboratory,
Lexington, Mass.
The
Chemical and Biological Defense Systems Group develops systems and technology
for disaster preparedness, detection, mitigation, and attribution, with emphasis
on chemical and biological defense. Principal sponsors are the Department of
Homeland Security and the Department of Defense. The work of this group is
highly interdisciplinary; as a result, the backgrounds of the researchers are
diverse, including engineering (electrical, mechanical, chemical, biomedical),
physics, mathematics, computer science, chemistry, and biology. Rigorous
systems analyses produce system architectures and recommend research areas to
guide government investment. These analyses are grounded by modeling and
simulation of threats and defenses and by data analysis. Sensor development is
conducted at several levels, including initial measurements of detection
signatures, proof-of-concept experiments for biological or chemical assay or
electro-optic sensors, integration into autonomous sensors along with
development of the associated electronics and algorithms, and rigorous
field-testing in relevant environments. The group develops and tests
multitechnology integrated systems in operational settings. The integrated
systems include significant algorithm development to fuse multisource
information. Emerging thrusts in the group include support for additional
Homeland Security missions, natural disaster management, forensics, and electronics
and algorithm support for other MIT Lincoln Laboratory missions.
This
position requires an engineer or computer scientist to aid in the research,
development, and testing of data interpretation algorithms for Homeland
Defense, Department of Defense, or Intelligence Community applications, with an
emphasis on image and video processing. For defined problems, candidates will
be expected to evaluate existing data interpretation techniques, propose
solutions for data interpretation problems based on careful analysis, code
proof-of-concept software systems, and assess performance on realistic data
sets. Candidates will also be expected to help identify emerging trends within
the machine vision field, as well as their application to US Government data
interpretation operations. Candidates should have general knowledge in the
fields of machine learning, pattern recognition, probability theory,
image/video processing, and basic software development.
Requirements:
The
candidate must possess a Ph.D. in computer science, mathematics, electrical
engineering, or an equivalent field. In lieu of an Ph.D. degree, an M.S degree
with at least five years of directly related research experience will be
considered. Prior experience with machine vision algorithms is required, as is
broad familiarity with machine learning, pattern recognition, and probability
theory concepts. Proficiency with Matlab or C/C++ development environments is
strongly desired.
