2.0 DESCRIPTION OF TECHNICAL EFFORT

A. Basic Contract

Xonics provided technical support services in supporc of a major

.LA•PP acoustic exercise during the period I July 1973 through 15 October1973 under Contract 400014-74-C-o049. During this period, Xonics effortswere directed at the following tasks:

N Task I - Technical support in planning a major LRAPP acoustic exercise

that included the foliowing:

* Data and data reduction requirements;* Data selection and validation;

e Data reduction and analysis responsibilities;0 Estimated resources required to perform the data reduction and

analysis task on an organizational and task basis;

- Defined milestones, a time schedule to accomplish the mile-

stones, and a reporting schedule;* Prepated Data Reduction and Analysis Plan; and

* Evaluated techniques for processing directionality data and

coherence.

Task II - Technical support pertaining to operational readiness of equip-

ment and facilities essential for a major LRAPP acoustic exer-

cise that includea viort.k in the following two desimnated areas:

[' "1

1. Verification of operational readiness of exercise elements, such

as, but not limited to:

* Ship and ship systems;* Measurement equipment;

e Test documentation relative to equipment operating procedures;

I Ship and scientific crew; and

* Expendables

2. Coordination of milestones with each Principal Investigator

inv&.ived In various aspects of the programi to meet schedule demands essen-tial for exercise success. This coordination was completed by a series

of actions as follows:

* Requested exercise preparation status reports and preparation

plans (events and schedule) in PERT format from Principal

Investigators;

* Assessed current state of readiness for equipment from Principal

Investigator status reports;

* Evaluated exercise preparation plans for realizability and level

of detail and modified where necessary after approval from the

Tech•nical Director;

* Periodically reviewed progress with each Principal Investigator

for comparison with preparation plan schdule; notified Technical

Director of all schedule slips and recomended solutions;

* Assisted in the revision of the preparation plans with the

Principal Investigators; and

Spotchecked status of preparation by on-site inspections of

U critical equiip'nt, exaination of test and calibration data,witnessitg of sstem demonstrations, and review of test log

N: forms and data sheets.

All appropriate activity reports and suarites were prepared and

sutmitted to the Scientific Officer.

B. Modification POO001

Under this modification, Xonics continued to provide technital serv-

ices to Director, LRAPP from 21 August 1973 through 31 December 1973

relative to data reduction and analysis for a major LRAPP acoustic exer-cise. The effort was conducted in two phases with defined tasks as

follows:

Phase I

0 Developed processing specification for data reduction and anal-

ysis compatible with the sensors of a parallel gxercise;

* Identified specific data to be analyzed relative to type and

quantity;

0 Prepared a Data Reduction and Analysis Management Plan citing

responsibilities, tasks, and schedules;

_ Revised, as necessary, the 20 August 1973 revision of the Data

Reduction and Analysis Plan; and

N Revised, published, and distributed the Data Reduction andAnalysis Plan.

FM Phase II

4 Coordinated the reduction and analysis of all required exercise

data, including acting as technical liaison; and

a Disseminated exercise data and results.

-U All appropriate activity reports and sunmnaries for this contract

modification were prepared and submitted to the Scientific Officer.

e Prepared the final draft SQUARE DEAL Data Analysis Plan. Vol-

umes I and II; and

I Revised and published CHURCH ANCHOR Data Analysis Plan.

All appropriate activity reports and summaries for the contract mod-ifications were prepared and submitted to the Scientific Officer.

D. Modification P00003

Under this modification, Xonics cohtinued to provide technicalservices to Director, LRAPP from 1 May 1974 through 31 July 1974 and

* conducted the following additional tasks:

0 Revised Volume I of SQUARE DEAL Data Analysis Plan as dictatedby changing priorities. Special attention was directed towardindividual task assignments; and

1 Rewrote and edited inputs to Volume 11 of the Data AnalysisPlan; original artwork and tables in the publicatlio wertcompleted. After draft review and approval, the publicationwas printed and distributed as a Maury Center Report.

All appropriate activity reports and sunaries for this contract

modification were prepared and slubitted to the Scientific Officer.
