DARPA at APL
Volume 20, Number 3 (July–September 1999)

APL and DARPA have formed a synergistic andeffective relationship in which the Laboratory continuesto support the agency through the development of rev-olutionary innovation, through technical support as anhonest agent and domain expert, and as a transitionagent to facilitate the impedance matching between theAgency and the services. The collection of articles pre-sented here shows the breadth and depth of these activ-ities across many domains of interest.
