The events occurred in the last years have shown how the threat
related to both intentional and natural disasters could bring the
civil and the military worlds closer in the conceivement and
deployment of countermeasures as well as in the identification of
effective strategies for enhancing the Planet safety and security.
In this frame, the concept of dual use ? the set of technologies
and applications that can be exploited for both civil and military
purposes - becomes a key-topic. In addition, the aerospace is a
strategic building block in the deployment of a network centric
environment that aims at the global protection of the mankind.
Aerospace is also a natural environment for dual use: many of the
related enabling technologies have been first developed for the
military world and then applied to civil ? including commercial -
purposes. On September 12-14, 2007 an International Symposium has
been held in Roma, Italy, joining the dual use approach with the
aerospace technology: the international community has been gathered
around the key-topic: aerospace technologies and applications for
dual use. The event has called experts and operators from the
military and civil community, belonging to industry, scientific and
governmental institutions. The common aim was an effective
convergence between the available and perspected technologies for
the civil and military worlds as well as the conceivement of
applications that can take the maximum benefit from the dual
approach, optimizing the available economic resources. The
Symposium has included invited-only contributions and an industrial
panel. The main results of the Symposium, derived from key-note
speeches, invited lectures, panel discussions and conclusions have
created the starting material to develop this Edited Book. The book
- the first on the topic - can be considered a milestone and a
key-tool aimed at driving the industrial, scientific and
institutional efforts of the international community to guarantee a
pleasant and safe future to the whole Planet. Contents Preface,
