In the U.S., nuclear weapons design will be advanced through simulations carried out using superfast computers costing hundreds of millions of dollars, coupled with archived data from more than 1,000 past tests, and new diagnostic information obtained from inertial confinement fusion facilities.

The planned tests are particularly interesting since, according to the information supplied by the Americans, they will focus on a new guidance system designed to improve strike reliability and accuracy.

The DRIVE work plan comprises features such as . analysis of actors' requirements and functional specifications . analysis of traffic accident data . transmission technologies (micro-wave, infra-red, radio etc.) . communication architectures and technologies . vehicle, road condition, weather and pollution sensors . radar systems . route guidance and journey planning systems . message and signalling systems . development of appropriate software . development of strategies for traffic management . human factors work . standardisation, particularly of communications protocols and interfaces ...[+++] On the basis of this work plan and following the Council decision the EC Commission will now prepare a public call for proposals inviting interested and qualified partners to submit project proposals.

The areas that DRIVE will be addressing include systems for: - Speed and distance-keeping - Hazard warning - Monitoring the alertness of drivers - Protection of vulnerable road users (pedestrians, cyclists, etc) - Recording accident data through "Black box" technology - Providing information to drivers - Route guidance and planning - Vehicle location - Regulating traffic flow by intelligent signalling systems - Demand management, including automatic toll payment - Etc.
