DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Office of the Secretary


Defense Science Board; Meetings

AGENCY: Department of Defense.

ACTION: Notice of advisory committee meetings.

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

SUMMARY: The Defense Science Board (DSB) Task Force on Training for 
Future Conflict will meet in closed session on February 14-15, 2002, at 
SAIC, Inc., 4001 N. Fairfax Drive, Arlington, VA; and April 8-10, 2002 
location to be determined. 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.
    This 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. No. 92-463, as amended (5 U.S.C. App. II), it has been 
determined that these Defense Science Board meetings concern matters 
listed in 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1) and that, accordingly, these meetings 
will be closed to the public.

    Dated: January 11, 2002.

Alternate OSD Federal Register, Liaison Officer, Department of Defense.
