Chemical & Biological National Security Program FY00 Annual Report; DOE/NN-0015

2001Best.-Nr. 73569Washington DC: U. S. Department of Energy 2001. Presumed First Edition First printing. Trade paperback. Very good. 217 3 pages. Illustrations. Cover has some wear and soiling. The mission of the Office of Nonproliferation and Arms Control NPAC is to prevent proliferation ensure peaceful nuclear uses and enable verifiable nuclear reductions. NPAC provides a comprehensive approach to strengthen nonproliferation and arms control regimes achieving its mission through four subprograms: International Nuclear Safeguards; Nuclear Controls; Nuclear Verification; Nonproliferation Policy. One of the gravest threats the United States and the international community face is the possibility that terrorists or rogue nations will acquire nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass destruction WMD. NNSA through its Office of Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation DNN works closely with a wide range of international partners key U.S. federal agencies the U.S. national laboratories and the private sector to secure safeguard and/or dispose of dangerous nuclear and radiological material and detect and control the proliferation of related WMD technology and expertise. The Office of Nonproliferation Research and Engineering part of the National Nuclear Security Administration within the Department of Energy conducts wide-ranging research for diverse end users at the federal and local level. As such the Office faces a number of unusual challenges in determining how to best serve its users' needs within its budget. The Chemical & Biological National Security Program was initiated in FY97 in response to the growing awareness of both the chemical and biological weapon capabilities available to potential attackers and the vulnerabilities of the U.S> population to these weapons. From the outset the program has drawn from the deep scientific and engineering talents in the national laboratories as well as from specialized expertise in academia and industry. A basic philosophy of the CBNP is that any near-term impact of research and development requires a mission focus. The program's goal was not just to develop technology but to apply it to solve real problems and to develop demonstrate and deliver technologies and systems to improved domestic defense capabilities and ultimately to save lives in the event of a chemical or biological attack.

Accelerated Simulation and Computing Program Plan 2002-2003; DOE/DP/ASC-2002-ASCI-Prog-002

2002Best.-Nr. 76354Washington DC: United States Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration Defense Programs 2002. Presumed First Edition First printing. Wraps. Very good. iv 55 3 pages. Illustrations. Acronyms & Abbreviations. Glossary. This type of document is very ephemeral and it is believed that very few copies have survived in the more than two decades since it was issued. The United States government's Strategic Computing Initiative funded research into advanced computer hardware and artificial intelligence from 1983 to 1993. The initiative was designed to support various projects that were required to develop machine intelligence in a prescribed ten-year time frame from chip design and manufacture computer architecture to artificial intelligence software. The project was superseded in the 1990s by the Accelerated Strategic Computing Initiative and then by the Advanced Simulation and Computing Program. These later programs did not include artificial general intelligence as a goal but instead focused on supercomputing for large scale simulation such as atomic bomb simulations. The Advanced Simulation and Computing Program or ASC is a super-computing program run by the National Nuclear Security Administration in order to simulate test and maintain the United States nuclear stockpile. The program was created in 1995 in order to support the Stockpile Stewardship Program or SSP. The goal of the initiative is to extend the lifetime of the current aging stockpile. Among the sections in the Table of Contents are: Stockpile Stewardship Defense Applications Computer Science Integrated Computing Systems Strategic Alliances Verification and Validation Physics Modeling Weapons Simulation Modeling and Simulation Level 1 Milestones High Explosives Advanced Visualization Detonation Wave Titan IV Solid Rocket Motor Metropolis Center JCEL.

Develop and Sustain a Highly Capable Security Workforce

2017Best.-Nr. 74294Washington DC: United States. Department of Energy. National Nuclear Security Administration 2017. Presumed First Edition First printing. Wraps. Very good. vi 203 1 pages. Illustrations. Acronyms. References. Format us approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches. Cover has slight wear and soiling. This is the final report on the NNSA's Security Roadmap Key Strategy 4 Develop and Sustain a Highly Capable Security Workforce. The report is the culmination of a year's work by a team of Industrial Organizational Leadership Development professionals from the National Training Center NNSA's Office of Human Capital Management and the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The report is a comprehensive states of how the NNSA can significantly improve the recruitment development maturation and retention of the security professional. The report was designed to address the whole-person in that the report uses a competency-modeling concept as a key predictor in human performance. The next steps will include teaming to actively work the approved recommendations as well as establishing working groups to develop action plans for achieving success of each recommendation. The National Nuclear Security Administration NNSA is the U.S. agency responsible for enhancing national security through the military application of nuclear science. NNSA maintains and enhances the safety security and effectiveness of the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile without nuclear explosive testing; works to reduce the global danger from weapons of mass destruction; provides the U.S. Navy with safe and effective nuclear propulsion; and responds to nuclear and radiological emergencies in the U.S. and abroad. Established by the United States Congress in 2000 NNSA is a semi-autonomous agency within the United States Department of Energy. The National Nuclear Security Administration was created by Congressional action in 1999 in the wake of the Wen Ho Lee spy scandal and other allegations that lax administration by the Department of Energy had resulted in the loss of U.S. nuclear secrets to China. Originally proposed to be an independent agency NNSA gained the reluctant support of the Clinton administration only after it was instead chartered as a sub-agency within the Department of Energy to be headed by an administrator reporting to the Secretary of Energy. The first NNSA administrator appointed was Air Force General and CIA Deputy Director John A. Gordon. NNSA has four missions with regard to national security: · To manage the U.S. nuclear weapon stockpile. · To reduce global danger from weapons of mass destruction and to promote international nuclear safety and nonproliferation. · To provide the United States Navy with safe militarily effective nuclear propulsion plants and to ensure the safe and reliable operation of those plants. · To support United States leadership in science and technology.
