Describes the adaptation of an R&D portfolio management
decision framework developed by RAND to support R&D
decisionmaking by the Office of Naval Research. 450-character
abstract: Describes the adaptation of an R&D portfolio
management decision framework developed by the RAND Corporation to
support R&D decisionmaking by the Office of Naval Research
(ONR), and the demonstration of its use by means of a case study
evaluation of 20 sample ONR applied-research projects. It allows
identification of R&D projects with high-value capabilities but
formidable technical or fielcling problems yet to be
solved-projects for which management attention may have the
greatest leverage.
Assesses the homeland security implications of publicly available
geospatial data and information. Following the attacks of September
11, 2001, many agencies within the federal government began
restricting some of their publicly available geospatial data and
information from such sources as the World Wide Web. As time
passes, however, decisionmakers have begun to ask whether and how
such information specifically helps potential attackers, including
terrorists, to select U.S. homeland sites and prepare for better
attacks. The research detailed in this book aims to assist
decisionmakers tasked with the responsibility of choosing which
geospatial information to make available and which to restrict.
This report assesses the effect of sharing installations and
environment geospatial data assets across the Department of Defense
Global Information Grid. The authors found that the assets support
a wide range of missions from installation management to
warfighting support. The authors also identified barriers to
sharing, recommended ways to maximize the sharing benefits, and
developed a methodology for assessing the effects of sharing.
