Interstate Truck Parking Availability 1 Financial Status Task Financial Summary (See Note 1) Note 1: After last quarter’s report we agreed the City’s labor cost would all stay within Program Management. Task 3 was to be broken down by its two components and Task 4 was to be broken down by its four components. We are still working on breaking task 3 and 4 into the components and anticipate reporting expenses that way on the next quarterly report. Costs Incurred vs Budgeted Costs Costs Incurred vs Obligated Federal Funding Direct Labor Hours Worked (See Note 2) 2 Note 2: Some hours were estimated on the last quarterly report. There are no estimated hours on this report. The cumulative hours column was adjusted to reflect actual hours worked to-date, from project start through the end of this quarter. Budget vs Cost to Date Summary (See Note 3) $70,000,000.00 $60,000,000.00 $50,000,000.00 $40,000,000.00 Running Budget Running Costs $30,000,000.00 $20,000,000.00 $15,650,680.00 $6,260,272.00 $10,000,000.00 $0.00 $0.00 $1,582,076.43 31-Aug Q4-16 Q1-17 Q2-17 Q3-17 Q4-17 Note 3: There is a significant delta between budgeted costs and costs to date. This delta is a result of two factors: an over estimation of how quickly spend on the project would ramp up when the budget estimates were put together in July of 2016; and an assumption that Non-Federal (cost share) spending would constitute 47% of the budgeted spend ($5.9M) in the first year of the project. Cost share spending has been zero to this point. Costs Incurred by Cost Element (See Note 4) 3 Note 4: Some labor hours were estimated in the previous quarterly report. There are no estimated hours in this report. The cumulative column for Direct Labor and Fringe Benefits and Insurance Costs reflects adjustments made to correct for the estimated hours. Estimated Cost to Complete (See Note 5) Note 5: After last quarter’s report we agreed the City’s labor cost would all stay within Program Management. Task 3 was to be broken down by its two components and Task 4 was to be broken down by its four components. We are still working on breaking Task 3 and 4 into the components and anticipate reporting expenses that way on the next quarterly report.

The significance of this research is that it addresses the widespread and longstanding problem of defining, assessing, and exploiting the value of information in active sensing systems. This year we report progress in twenty areas organized around three main thrusts: (1) learning and representation of high dimensional data, (2) distributed information fusion, and (3) active information exploitation. In the learning and representation thrust, progress ranges from assessing value of Kronecker representations of high-dimensional covariance matrices to learning to rank user preference data, an impor- tant task for human-in-the-loop decision systems.
