Proposed research architecture
Federated Secure Compute
A proposed research path for distributed compute across fixed and mobile secure environments, subject to agency review and approval.
Architecture summary
Reference architecture
Define portable, regional, and mission-scale node designs, interfaces, control specifications, and operating boundaries.
Control plane
Study resource discovery and placement under classification, identity, need-to-know, custody, data-locality, and mission constraints.
Disconnected operation
Define resilient modes, permitted synchronization, evidence retention, failure tests, and recovery.
Guardrails
A proposed CRADA is not an executed agreement, procurement, classified-data authorization, employment promise, or guaranteed commercial right.
Decision rule: state what is known, what is proposed, what must be proven, and who has authority to approve the next step.
Next step
Turn the architecture into a pilot
Define the workload, sites, operators, constraints, evidence, economics, and decision criteria.
