DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Office of the Secretary


Defense Science Board

ACTION: Notice of advisory committee meetings.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Defense Science Board (DSB) Task Force on Training for 
Future Conflicts will meet in closed session on April 19-20, 2001; May 
31-June 1, 2001; and September 11-12, 2001, at SAIC, 4001 N. Fairfax 
Drive, Arlington, VA 22201. This Task Force will focus on identifying 
and characterizing what education and training are demanded by Joint 
Vision 2010/2020, and will address the development and demonstration 
time phasing over the next two decades for the combined triad of 
technology modernization, operational concepts, and training.
    The mission of the Defense Science Board is to advise the Secretary 
of Defense and the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, 
Technology & Logistics on scientific and technical matters as they 
affect the perceived needs of the Department of Defense. At these 
meetings, the Defense Science Board Task Force will also identify those 
approaches and techniques that potential enemies might take that could 
prepare them to revolutionize their warfare capabilities, thereby 
achieving a training surprise against the U.S. or its allies. This 
review will include, but not be limited to, unique training/education 
developments which might be spawned by allies or an adversary, training 
techniques and methodologies which might be transferred from the U.S. 
or through third parties, and finally, the possibilities emerging as a 
result of the globalization of military and information technologies, 
related commercial services and their application by other nations.
    In accordance with Section 10(d) of the Federal Advisory Committee 
Act, Pub. L. 92-463, as amended (5 U.S.C. App. II), it has been 
determined that this Defense Science Board meeting, concerns matters 
listed in 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1), and that accordingly this meeting will 
be closed to the public.

    Dated: March 27, 2001.
