Over the years, the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency has conducted a number of prize competitions to spur innovations.A prize competition allows DARPA to establish an ambitious goal, which makes way for novel approaches from the public that might otherwise appear too risky to undertake by experts in a particular discipline.

The agency was renamed the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in 1972, and during the early 1970s, it emphasized direct energy programs, information processing, and tactical technologies. [citation needed] Concerning information processing, DARPA made great progress, initially through its support of the development of time-sharing.
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA, formerly ARPA) has been the military's in-house innovator since 1958, a year after the USSR launched Sputnik.DARPA is widely known for creating ARPAnet, the predecessor of the internet, and has been instrumental in advancing hardened electronics, brain-computer interface technology, drones, and stealth technology.
The Joint European Disruptive Initiative launched its first "Darpa-type GrandChallenge" [8] on Covid-19 on May 5, 2020. [9] The competition consisted in screening "billions of molecules with blocking interactions on SARS-CoV-2" to develop a drug against the coronavirus — with each participant having to use at least three different calculation methods for the simulations.

The Dore Programme treatment has been studied and continues to be the subject of further research. [ 14 ] [ 15 ] The study by Reynolds et al. [ 13 ] has been challenged. For example, a control group was included only for a subset of assessments, and not for follow up; little information was provided on the test scores or treatment status of ...
The DARPA Robotics Challenge (DRC) was a prize competition funded by the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. Held from 2012 to 2015, it aimed to develop semi-autonomous ground robots that could do "complex tasks in dangerous, degraded, human-engineered environments." [1] The DRC followed the DARPA Grand Challenge and DARPA Urban ...
