About this file

This is a Task Description Document (TDD) template that provides instructions for proposers to structure their technical approach for the DARPA Mathematics of Boosting Agentic Communication (MATHBAC) solicitation (DARPA-PA-26-05). The template is designed for the Defense Sciences Office at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and serves as a framework for organizing research proposals focused on advancing foundational mathematics, systems theory, and information theory to enable science-discovery by autonomous agents and agent collectives.

The template requires proposers to organize their work into tasks and subtasks, with each section requiring specific information including: a general objective statement, a detailed description of the technical approach, identification of the work location, the primary organization responsible for execution, determination of whether human subjects or animal research will be involved, associated measurable milestones, and clearly defined deliverables such as data, reports, or software. The instructions specify that there is no page limit and that proprietary information should be excluded, allowing proposers to provide the level of detail necessary to demonstrate a comprehensive and innovative research plan that advances beyond incremental improvements to existing practices.

· A detailed description of the approach to be taken to accomplish each defined task/subtask.

· Identification of any tasks/subtasks that will involve human subjects or animals.

· Identification of any tasks/subtasks that will be performed on campus at a university.

· Identification (by name) of the primary organization (prime contractor, subawardee(s), consultant(s)) responsible for task/subtask execution.

· Measurable milestones (e.g., a deliverable, demonstration, or other event/activity that marks task progress or completion).

· A definition of all deliverables (e.g., data, reports, software) to be provided to the Government in support of the proposed tasks/subtasks.]
