DARPA- New Aged Programs

Self-Regenerative Systems (SRS)

Program Manager: Dr. Todd Hughes

The goal of the SRS program is to develop technology for building military computing systems that provide critical functionality at all times, in spite of damage caused by unintentional errors or attacks. All current systems suffer eventual failure due to the accumulated effects of errors or attacks. The SRS program aims to develop technologies enabling military systems to learn, regenerate themselves, and automatically improve their ability to deliver critical services. If successful, self-regenerative systems will show a positive trend in reliability, actually exceeding initial operating capability and approaching a theoretical optimal performance level over long time intervals.

      The Past:
      The older technology that would be replaced after this new aged technology is formed would be our present day computers. Today our computers have the ability to hold mass amount of data for as long as the owner wishes. However, if for some unfortunate event  your computer is attacked with a virus the owner would lose there information permenately. This new technology would prevent you from loosing that information. a computer that is immortal to attacks and viruses.                                                                                      
                                                                                                                  
    In Society:
    If this project were succesful our society would be able to have all of thier information on hand at all time. There would be no lost or missing information in the future due to computer malfunctions.
