DARPA
Initiative on Concurrent Engineering (DICE) is a $100 million project to
develop technologies and processes for concurrent engineering. CERC was the
prime on the contract with GE Central Research and Development with equal
funding split. Under this project CERC has developed, in the ‘80s,
collaborative technologies such as, meeting on the Internet, information
sharing, and large-scale database systems. They also developed processes for
concurrent engineering in a manufacturing environment.
CERC has
undertaken major healthcare projects including one funded by the National
Library of Medicine, part of National Institutes of Health (NIH). Under this
approximately $20 million project, CERC pioneered in early ‘90s,
internet-based healthcare delivery; developed advanced IT architectures,
prototyped, and deployed the first internet-based healthcare delivery system
successfully in the rural tri-state areas of West Virginia, Kentucky, and
Ohio.
These
projects include development and application of advanced IT technologies for
remote diagnostics, consultation, and healthcare delivery. IT technologies
included, internet distributed computing, large-scale databases, multimedia,
collaborative technologies, SMART Cards, etc.
