Perspectives from Former Executives of the DOD Corporate Research Laboratories
ISBN: 9781478198420 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 30 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Recent studies at the National Defense University (NDU) have documented the important science and technology (S&T) contributions of the military service laboratories.1 These studies showed that in-house Department of Defense (DOD) laboratories, in cooperation with the private sector and academia, developed critical technologies for weapon systems that strongly impacted the outcomes of World War II and the Cold War. Involvement of the in-house laboratories continues today, undiminished, as our Nation battles the threat of international terrorism.

Strengthening Technical Peer Review at the Army S&T Laboratories
ISBN: 9781478198383 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 30 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The assumption underlying the value of peer re view is that the quality of work is substantiated or improved through critiques by individuals who are independent, objective, and have specialized knowledge in the subject matter. One of the authors (Dr. Lyons) has had firsthand experience with such reviews. Some time ago, while in the private sector, he was asked to serve on a National Research Council (NRC) ad hoc committee of external, independent experts to review the fire research program at the National Bureau of Standards (N BS). The committee found the program s to be fragmented and...

The Questions of Tenure
ISBN: 9780674016040 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Tenure is the abortion issue of the academy, igniting arguments and inflaming near-religious passions. To some, tenure is essential to academic freedom and a magnet to recruit and retain top-flight faculty. To others, it is an impediment to professorial accountability and a constraint on institutional flexibility and finances. But beyond anecdote and opinion, what do we really know about how tenure works? In this unique book, Richard Chait and his colleagues offer the results of their research on key empirical questions. Are there circumstances under which faculty might voluntarily... Tenure is the abortion issue of the academy, igniting arguments and inflaming near-religious passions.

Improving the Army's Next Effort in Technology Forecasting
ISBN: 9781478192091 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 40 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. An important challenge for the Department of Defense (DOD) science and technology (S&T) programs is to avoid technological surprise resulting from the exponential increase in the pace of discovery and change in S&T worldwide. The nature of the military threat is also changing, resulting in new military requirements, some of which can be met by technology. Proper shaping of the S&T portfolio requires predicting and matching these two factors well into the future. Some examples of technologies which have radically affected the battlefield include the Global Positioning System coupled with...

ISBN: 9781478191889 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 34 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this paper we review some of the landscape of research and development on power and energy as it pertains to the needs of the Army warfighter. We focus on the battlefield and consider questions related to vehicles, dismounted soldiers, and forward operating bases. The literature in the overall field of energy research is immense; we make no attempt to review all these reports but rather have looked at a few selected studies that focus on the military challenges. The context of the study is twofold: the National need to reduce the use of petroleum-based fuels and the Army's need to reduce...
