ERIS Special Topic Area – DARPAVERSE

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is seeking solutions or capabilities that deliver breakthrough technological advancements for the "DARPAVERSE" program. The DARPAVERSE program aims to create a collaborative environment that transforms how warfighters, analysts, and program managers interact with complex modeling systems. The program seeks new methods for the generation of composable reduced order models that can be generated from data and stored in a containerized software armory, along with methods to compose these models into orchestrated workflows using dependent type systems to understand correct composition using natural language interfaces that bridge communication gaps between technical and non-technical users. The key aspects of this opportunity include: • The development of a collaborative environment for complex modeling systems • The generation of composable reduced order models from data • The composition of models into orchestrated workflows using dependent type systems • The use of natural language interfaces to bridge communication gaps between technical and non-technical users • The development of a containerized software armory for storing models • The evaluation of submissions based on program metrics provided in the ERIS announcement
