with special attention given to including assets currently existing within the Department of the Army. Determining appropriate potential relationships between such a center and existing government, industry, and academic organizations was also important, since such relationships are critical for promoting the effective transfer of scientific knowledge and technologies among the user community, and for furthering the development 0

Future networks must be described not only in terms of military operations, but also in terms of how they can integrate the social, cultural, economic, and political aspects of human performance, including understanding the adversary in irregular warfare. In recognition of this, while the traditional focus of Army NSTE on physical networks must continue, it must also support research activities that are on the cutting edge of applying network science to the challenges of asymmetric warfare.

• Recommend an optimized collaborative approach for Army research, technology, and experimentation to solve important real-world Army problems involving network science and technology and network opera tions. Collaboration in this sense means developing a multi-disciplinary approach within the Army and also collaborating or partnering with aca demia, industry, and other relevant organizations to bring their expertise and intellectual capital to bear on relevant problems of mutual interest.

• The high value attached to the efficient and failure-free operation of global, engineered networks makes their design, scaling, operation, and protection a national priority. The 2005 report also identified seven major research challenges for network science (pp.
