Abstract :
Summary form only given. A multi-faceted program in low-latency broadband optical computer networks is used to illustrate defense research trends in communications. The program features university research, industrial development, technology insertion, and demonstrations at government test-beds. These activities are used to illustrate the synergism between defense research and non-defense uses
