Abstract	During 2006-2007, the research projects at OSI were on air traffic management, control of internally actuated vehicles, data mining methods for store-separation trajectory analysis, speech recognition for Carrier-based air traffic control, and design of advanced computational hardware for trajectory prediction. In the air traffic management area, software is being developed for regulating surface traffic at airports, and en-route traffic flow control. Real-time nonlinear control systems are being designed for hyper-velocity flight vehicles using center of mass management. Data mining methods are being employed to explore the parameters influencing dynamic behavior of stores are they are released at high speeds and low altitudes from various flying platforms. A speech recognition system capable of operating in nonstationary noise environments is being developed for use in the control of UAV traffic onboard aircraft carriers. Finally, a computational appliance is being developed for rapid prediction of aircraft trajectories for the next-generation air traffic management systems.
