Lightweight Universal Codec (LUC)The Lightweight Universal Codec (LUC) program, managed by DARPA’s Information Processing Techniques Office, aims to develop a revolutionary adaptive error correction codec capable of dynamically selecting and switching between any known or future error correction codes using a universal encoder-decoder architecture. Built upon the foundation of DARPA’s GRAND (Guessing Random Additive Noise Decoding) research, the codec will integrate real-time channel characteristic inference from the decoder’s noise model to optimize code selection for link budget, mission priorities, and system performance. The goal is to achieve unprecedented efficiency, security, and interoperability across diverse communication platforms through low-power, on-the-fly decoding and adaptive forward error correction. Successful implementations must demonstrate universality—functioning seamlessly across heterogeneous networks—and measurable improvements in throughput and resilience without requiring changes to underlying physical layers. The program is structured as a two-phase effort spanning 39 months total, beginning with a 12-month Phase 1 focused on codec design, modeling, and simulation, followed by a 27-month optional Phase 2 involving hardware prototyping, integration with commercial or military transceivers, and field testing in locations alternating between Washington, DC and San Diego, CA. All work must remain unclassified or at the Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) level, with technology intended exclusively for research, prototyping, and evaluation—not for direct field deployment. Proposers must meet stringent cybersecurity requirements, including holding a valid, unexpired Final Level 2 CMMC certification recorded in the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) for their CAGE code, and maintaining compliance with NIST SP 800-171 for systems handling CUI. CMMC requirements must be flowed down to all subcontractors handling Federal Contract Information or CUI, and proposers must affirm their ability to protect sensitive data through authorized systems prior to award. Submission follows a two-stage process: an initial abstract, limited to eight pages and submitted via DARPA’s BAAT portal by July 22, 2026, followed by a government-invited full proposal including technical documents, cost proposals, biographical sketches, and supporting forms. Full proposals must demonstrate technical merit, verifiable expertise in error correction codes and communications platforms, clear intellectual property management, and cost realism aligned with the proposed approach. Award decisions will be determined through DARPA’s Scientific Review Process, evaluating innovation, feasibility, and overall scientific merit, with multiple awards anticipated. Deliverables include prototype hardware units, technical documentation, quarterly and monthly reporting, and post-ex

PerrseusThe Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is seeking innovative proposals under solicitation DARPA-PS-26-127, titled Perrseus, to advance compact cold-atom devices and environmentally-decoupled ultra-high Q microelectromechanical (MEMS) and photonics systems through the development of microscale ultra-high-vacuum (µUHV) technologies. This effort is governed by an Other Transaction (OT) agreement under 10 U.S.C. § 4022, which allows DARPA to partner with nontraditional defense contractors and academic or commercial entities without being bound by standard Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) requirements. Proposals must be submitted by September 23, 2026, and successful applicants will enter into a flexible, milestone-driven agreement structured around either fixed-support or expenditure-based payment models, with funding tied to the achievement of defined technical objectives. The agreement will require adherence to specific administrative and technical obligations, including the submission of a Data Management Plan within 30 days of award, annual program reports, and a final executive summary documenting accomplishments and the value of the OT approach. Deliverables will be reviewed and accepted by the DARPA Agreement Officer’s Representative, with electronic invoicing and acceptance processed through the Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) system. The performer must comply with stringent cybersecurity and information safeguarding requirements, including the protection of Covered Defense Information as defined in the Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) Registry, and must report any cyber incidents promptly. All contractors must maintain active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM), provide accurate payee data including Cage Code, UEI, and TIN, and certify compliance with federal laws regarding felony convictions and unpaid tax liabilities. The agreement prohibits the use of certain telecommunications and video surveillance equipment and requires that all subcontractors inherit key contractual provisions related to data rights, cybersecurity, export controls, and lobbying disclosures. Intellectual property rights are negotiated but generally remain with the performer, subject to government rights for national security purposes. The performer is obligated to safeguard all program-related data, requires prior written approval from DARPA before publicly releasing any findings, and must retain records for audit purposes for up to three years post-project. Additionally, if government funding exceeds $5 million, the Comptroller General of the United States is granted audit rights. Proposals are to be submitted via email, with the Data Management Plan uploaded to the DARPA Vault, and invention disclosures submitted through I-Edison. All activities

Decentralized Artificial Intelligence through Controlled Emergence (DICE)The DICE program seeks to advance the state of artificial intelligence by developing decentralized coordination and local inference control mechanisms to enable scalable, adaptive, and resilient collectives of heterogeneous AI agents capable of autonomously executing long-duration missions in contested environments while remaining under human oversight. Unlike centralized orchestration or ad hoc agent compositions, DICE leverages principles of self-organization akin to the internet’s robust infrastructure, where predictable, aligned global behavior emerges from simple local rules. The program is structured across three technical areas: TA1 focuses on peer-to-peer coordination through distributed auctioning, multi-agent reinforcement learning, and fault-tolerant consensus methods; TA2 develops control tools such as role-drift detectors, mission-alignment metrics, and inference-time controllers to ensure agent behavior stays within intended parameters; and TA3 builds a publicly accessible testing and evaluation platform, simulation environments, and metrics to assess scalability, adaptability, and resilience, including a state-of-the-art centralized baseline for comparison. Deliverables include algorithm implementations, courseware, simulation frameworks, and continuous reporting through quarterly updates and biweekly DARPA meetings, with all systems required to be demonstrated through a series of phased evaluations. The solicitation HR001126S0010, issued by DARPA under the Department of Defense, has a submission deadline of August 25, 2026, and requires proposers to submit both a technical and management volume (limited to 25 pages) and a detailed cost proposal using DARPA’s standardized spreadsheet. Proposals must conform to strict mandatory technical requirements and possess a valid and current CMMC Level 1 or 2 certification, depending on whether the work involves Federal Contract Information or Controlled Unclassified Information, with CMMC requirements flowing down to all subcontractors handling such data. Work is anticipated to be conducted at unclassified levels for TA1 and TA2, while TA3 will handle CUI, requiring compliance with DFARS 252.204-7012, NIST 800-171, and DoDI 5200.48 for storage, processing, and reporting of security incidents. Key personnel must commit substantial time to the effort, and proposers must disclose organizational conflicts of interest, provide SAM.gov UEI, CAGE code, and TIN, and certify their small business status if applicable. The full program spans 36 months, divided into three phases with specific milestones including annual workshops in Washington D.C., Boston, and San Francisco,
