Actually, the better question is, which vendor received funds and actually made a useful solution that can go production with the deliverables. From my view it seems like history is repeating itself[1] and I wish more people would wake up. The top down approach to funding scientific research and the in-fighting between labs is just too much nonsense. If these research projects were a start-up, it would have failed hard.
