The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is the central research and
development organization for the <A HREF="http://www.dtic.mil/defenselink/">Department of Defense (DoD)</A>. It
manages and directs selected basic and applied research and development projects
for DoD, and pursues research and technology where risk and payoff are both very
high and where success may provide dramatic advances for traditional military
roles and missions and dual-use applications.<P>
