Streamlined Sales Tax Project (SSTP)
Including Non/Uniform Rational B-Spline Polynomial definitions of METRO econometric objects; And the encoding of object/set behavior(s) and the kalman filtering of random unknowns (of data phases, vectors and amplitudes) etc.
System-on-Chip, CPU logic-core, programmable gate-array and other
microprocessor specifications for field-programmable iconization of economic and
behavioral data.
Iconization/ Objectification Strategies (particularly re:
attribute-oriented induction/ attribute focusing).
Also summarization,
object-transport protocols (HTTP, NNTP, etc) and middleware standardization for
transport and hierarchial storage.
Digital Signal Processing developments;
with the anticipated potential (based on the emerging potential of 64 and
128-bit processing) for the METRO system to perform pattern-recognition of
economic objects: Basically recognizing the "surface features" and underlying
"hidden content" of the economic object as a heirarchial "multimedia" file.
Cash register (and other "economic interface") industry developments-
relative to the developing market for embedded, System-on-Chip, METRO
capabilities.
Smartcard utilization by the U.S. Government (Citibank); As a
baseline for METRO Test and Evaluation field trials.
METRO system
methodologies and timelines to field-deployment of METRO standards. DataMining
methodologies (in particular,relating to Association, Clustering and Trend
analysis)
Fuzzy logic (in particular relating to Rough sets and Clustering of
unknowns)
Real-time Operating Systems
Network and data fault-tolerance and
recovery
"Intelligent Agent" strategies for conducting
searches
(particularly in regards to Plangent mobility and reflective
metaplanning;
Also ontology of expertise, domain model, information source
models, query processing, communications language and protocols,
Artificial-Intelligence-assisted browsing, user's heuristic phrase-extraction
and query-free information retrieval by the system, itself).
Overall Network
Design: Relative to satellite, fiber, hybrids; nodes, storage,
protocols.
Security: Citing of mirrored-datamine sites, threats to databases,
use of cryptography in data transport and threat countermeasures.
Social and political dynamics of METRO: From "selling" METRO as a research program... to establishing and protecting it as a (defacto?) standard... and to its implementation as a deployed technology. For example, METRO meets the need (as defined in April, 1999, by U.S. Treasury Secretary Rubin) for "transparency and disclosure" in the global investor knowledge base-- of economic activity underway in emerging world markets, etc).
