About this opportunity

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has issued a pre-solicitation notice for the Continuous-correctness On Opaque Processors (COOP) program. The COOP program seeks to develop transformative tools and techniques that can continuously guarantee software is running correctly if-and-only-if the device physics is correct. This program combines formal methods and side-channels to unify computer science and physics, aiming to provide continual guarantees of software correctness on any processor with low overhead. DARPA will evaluate proposals based on their scientific and technical merit, contribution to DARPA's mission, and cost and schedule realism. Abstracts are due by March 28, 2024, and full proposals are due by May 13, 2024, with anticipated awards around September 2024.

The COOP program does not have a set-aside designation. DARPA anticipates making multiple awards under this Broad Agency Announcement, either as procurement contracts or other transactions. The program has an 18-month base period and an 18-month option period. DARPA has not provided specific budget ranges or incumbent contractor information in the pre-solicitation notice.
