Prospective Grant of Exclusive Patent License

AGENCY: U.S. Army Soldier and Biological Chemical Command, U.S. Army, 
DoD.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the provisions of 35 U.S.C. 209(c)(1) and 
37 CFR Part 404.7(a)(1)(i), SBCCOM hereby gives notice that it is 
contemplating the grant of an exclusive license in the United States to 
practice the invention embodied in U.S. Provisional Patent Application 
60/184,376 entitled: ``Automated Decision-Aid System for Hazardous 
Incidents (ADASHI)'' to Optimetrics, Inc.
    The Automated Decision-Aid System for Hazardous Incidents (ADASHI) 
is a unique computer-based integrated decision-aid support system for 
improving tactical response to a hazardous incident. ADASHI effectively 
integrates the specific technical functions required to control a 
hazardous event involving chemical, biological or radiological (CBR) 
materials. ADASHI will automatically monitor most aspects of the CBR 
event, whether it be a ``What if?'' simulated event for training 
purposes or a real event. ADASHI can also be utilized as an ``over the 
shoulder'' decision-support system to aid incident commanders in making 
better, more timely decisions by rapidly processing the multi-variant 
input data and providing critical information to that commander in a 
high-stress environment.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Bob Gross, Technology Transfer 
Office, U.S. Army SBCCOM, ATTN: AMSSB-RAS-C, 5183 Blackhawk Road (Bldg 
E3330/245), APG MD 21010-5423; Phone: (410) 436-5387 or E-mail: 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The prospective exclusive license will be 
royalty bearing and will comply with the terms and conditions of 35 
U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR 404.7. The prospective exclusive license may be 
granted, unless within sixty days from the date of this published 
Notice, SBCCOM receives written evidence and argument to establish that 
the grant of the license would not be consistent with the requirements 
of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR 404.7.
