The Center was established
in June 2001 to gain new insights by combining expert analysis of
science and technology developments with national security policy.
During its first few years, the Center will focus on the following
initiatives: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Assessing the right directions
for US and allied military transformation and helping
to remove impediments. |
|
|
Maximizing the infusion of
useful technology into our military forces, both through
defense labs and from commercial sources. |
|
|
|
Using technology to meet new
transnational challenges such as terrorism, weapons proliferation,
international crime and environmental degradation. |
|
|
Using analytical techniques
to better understand global trends and plan for conflict
reduction. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
