Harnessing the Power of AI: Status and Expansion of Current Domestic Transport Security Through Flexible Embedded Hardware

As applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) continue to expand, there are increasing opportunities to leverage applied AI methodologies with mobile transportation focused embedded systems. Current applications of AI in transportation focus on a variety of areas, including fuel efficiency, safety, security, and other broad fields of optimization or detection. To leverage these AI workflows and methodologies in the field, teams must utilize complex embedded systems capable of implementing these AI-enabled algorithms in real-time. In this paper, we will investigate how these algorithms can be integrated into existing technologies leveraging vehicle data - such as the Controller Area Network Transport Security Tracking and Reporting Unit (C-STAR). The C-STAR technology is an embedded platform with onboard computation capable of running next generation algorithms in vehicle systems AI, such as preventative maintenance, driver authentication, and transport security. As deployed in the field, the C-STAR has a limited AI functionality –this paper will directly discuss how a device like C-STAR can be utilized and the advantages of integrating these new technologies. We will open with relevant background information and transportation projects that leverage AI, focusing specifically on those around transport security such as vehicle identification, anomaly detection, and deterrence. We will then extend this into potential opportunities and scaling for AI methodologies using platforms like the C-STAR. Finally, we will speak directly to the challenges of deploying AI-powered workflows, such as computing power needs, bandwidth, hallucinations, and other regulatory considerations.

Los Alamos National Laboratory Floodplain Assessment for the High Explosive Transfer Facility Blast Radius Fence Project at Technical Area 08

The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), a semi-autonomous agency within the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is proposing to take action at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) within the upper Pajarito Canyon 100-year (yr.) floodplain at Technical Area (TA) 08. This action consists of installation of a 3-strand smooth wire fence to create an operational boundary in a radius of 1250 feet (ft.) from the TA-08 High Explosive (HE) Transfer Facility (Figure 1). The proposed fence is intended to provide a barrier between the public and direct access to the HE Transfer Facility.

An Architectural Survey of the Area 25 Nuclear Rocket Development Station, Nevada National Security Site, Nye County, Nevada, Volume 2 Of 3

The purpose of the current architectural survey is to record the Nuclear Rocket Development Station (NRDS) district, which is recommended eligible for listing to the NRHP under all four criteria as the testing center for the Rover/NERVA (Nuclear Engine for Rocket Vehicle Application) program from the initial boundary survey in 1956 to the end of nuclear rocket development on January 5, 1973. Resources within the boundary of the NRDS district were evaluated to determine if they are eligible for listing to the National Register as district contributors. Subdistricts within the larger NRDS district were defined to provide a temporal, spatial, and functional framework for organizing the resources involved in the NRDS operations. However, developing contexts for the individual subdistricts was beyond the scope of the NRDS survey. Therefore, the potentially eligible subdistricts were not individually evaluated under any of the Secretary of Interior’s Significance Criteria for eligibility to the National Register.

Resources in the NRDS district were evaluated to determine if they are eligible for listing to the National Register as district contributors. The current survey identified the Reactor Control Point subdistrict to provide a temporal, spatial, and functional framework for organizing the resources involved in the NRDS operations. However, the subdistrict was not evaluated as a potential historic district against the Secretary of Interior’s Significance Criteria.
