Abstract: A method of controlling autonomous vehicles is described. The method comprises receiving a text string regarding operation of an autonomous aircraft, analyzing the text string via a decoder module to identify one or more linguistic aircraft control components in the text string, and accessing an aircraft-related knowledge base associated with the decoder module to validate one or more identified linguistic aircraft control components. The method further comprises, based at least on the identified linguistic aircraft control components, determining a command for controlling the autonomous aircraft, and outputting the command for execution by the autonomous aircraft.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for use in presenting information from a plurality of security domains. A first request for first data from a first data source and a second request for second data from a second data source are transmitted by a computing device. The first data source is associated with a first security domain, and the second data source is associated with a second security domain. A bridge computing device forwards the first request and/or the second request based on determining that the requests are authorized. The first data and the second data may be received and combined by the computing device.
