Description: STATISTICAL ENGINEERING FOR AIRSPACE TECHNOLOGY DEMONSTRATION.  STATISTICAL METHODS ARE BEING UTILIZED IN NASA S AIRSPACE TECHNOLOGY DEMONSTRATION (ATD) PROJECT WITHIN THE AIRSPACE OPERATIONS AND SAFETY PROGRAM TO ASSESS THE PERFORMANCE AND EFFICIENCY OF CONCEPTS, TOOLS, PROCEDURES, AND ALGORITHMS, AND SUPPORT OPERATIONAL ANALYSES. MORE SPECIFICALLY, STATISTICAL EXPERIMENT DESIGN AND ANALYSIS IS REQUIRED TO SUPPORT EXPERIMENTS INVESTIGATING THE INTEGRATION OF CONCEPTS AND TECHNOLOGIES, LEADING TO A DEMONSTRATION OF THE TECHNOLOGIES IN A RELEVANT ENVIRONMENT. TO SUPPORT ATD, STATISTICAL EXPERTISE IS REQUIRED THAT FOCUSES ON HYPOTHESIS DEFINITION, EXPERIMENT DESIGN, PLANNING AND OBSERVATION, SAMPLE SIZE DETERMINATION, ANALYSIS OF VARIANCE, REGRESSION MODELING, NONPARAMETRIC ANALYSES, HYPOTHESIS TESTING, INFERENCE, AND INTERPRETATION OF THE EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS, WHICH INCLUDE PILOT FOCUS GROUP, FLIGHT TEST, AND OPERATIONAL EVALUATION. THIS TASK ORDER REQUIRES STATISTICAL MODELING, ANALYSIS, INTERPRETATION, COMMUNICATION, AND WRITTEN REPORTS.
