Sumario:The U.S. Air Force is developing new force capabilities appropriate to an emerging array of threats. It is clear that advances in information science and technology (IS & T) are essential for most of these new capabilities. As a consequence, the Air Force is finding it necessary to refocus its IS & T basic research program to provide stronger support for reaching these goals. To assist this effort, the AFOSR asked the NRC for a study to create a vision and plan for the IS & T-related programs within the Office & rsquo;s Mathematics and Space Science Directorate. This report provides an assessment of basic research needs for Air Force systems and communications, software, information management and integration, and human interactions with IS & T systems. The report also offers a set of priorities for basic IS & T research, and an analysis of funding mechanisms its support.
