In a Defense and Technology Paper (DTP) entitled "A Methodology for
Assessing the Military Benefits of Science and Technology
Investments,"1 the National Defense University (NDU) Center for
Technology and National Security Policy (CTNSP) presented a variety
of approaches for deriving the return on investment - in terms of
warfighting capabilities - for Army science and technology
(S&T) efforts. As a follow-up to the methodology study that
generated the DTP, the CTNSP wished to demonstrate parts of the
methodology in the evaluation of an actual Army S&T effort. The
Army Research Laboratory's (ARL's) Micro-Autonomous Systems and
Technology (MAST) Collaborative Technology Alliance (CTA)2 program
was chosen to demonstrate the utility of the methodology because it
offers significant future capabilities for our Army, provides a set
of very robust present-day technical challenges, and offers a
significant assessment challenge since it is focused on basic
research.
This paper originated with the concerns of the Deputy Assistant
Secretary of the Army for Research and Technology (DASA(R&T)),
whose duty is to assess the Army's science and technology (S&T)
program.1 The Deputy Assistant Secretary has aggressively sought
innovative ideas for measuring the impact of the Army's S&T on
the future fighting force. Recently, the National Defense
University's Center for Technology and National Security Policy
(CTNSP) conducted a full review of the past contributions of Army
laboratories to today's military capabilities.2 Aware of that
review, the Deputy Assistant Secretary asked CTNSP to develop
approaches for measuring the benefits of today's S&T
investments on the future military.
