DOWNLOAD EBOOKDomestic Technology Transfer is the positive exchange of information among the members of the scientific and engineering communities within the US, both defense and non-defense related. Technology export can be intentional or non-intentional, and the results can produce strategic benefits/detriments to the nation's economic, political, and military goals. The dichotomy and the dynamics of the national policies and directives on these two aspects of technology transfer are frequently discussed. The roles of personnel in the government lab, industrial R & D center, and the university research facility must be delineated, and guidance provided on how to separate classified information from unclassified military significant technology, and from other unclassified technology information. The active participant role for the technical subject matter expert is necessary to accomplish national security objectives through encouraging domestic technology transfer and preparing accurate technology assessments for considerations in export control case processing.
