6. National Center for Supercomputing Applications Key Discriminators Operational Capability Technology research acceleration leads to accelerated technology transfer and technology commercialization. The technologies/capabilities selected for acceleration align with Future Naval Capabilities.

7. National Center for Supercomputing Applications Problem/Readiness/Champions Problem Being Addressed Acceleration of transfer of research technologies into the Navy and DoD and acceleration into the marketplace sooner. Technology Readiness Level This technology has completed level 2 (technology concept formulated). Champions ONR has requested that University of Illinois undertake this initiative and supports allocating $500K of TRECC Program funds. UI supports this initiative because it promotes entrepreneurship and business start-up.
