Advanced Technology Integration Demonstration
In August 1999 Peter Knight began work as a consultant to Science
Applications International Corporation's Strategic Assessment Center
for the Advanced Technology Integration Demonstration Project (ATID)
for "Technology Transfer, Information Management, and
Integration of the Reserve Component into the Interagency Effort to
Combat Domestic Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) Terrorism.” This
involved visiting two universities and a National Guard installation as
part of a team assessing their capacity to conduct distance learning for
"first responders" (police, firefighters, National Guard
units, etc.) to attacks by terrorists using chemical, biological, and
radiological weapons. Peter Knight also is a member of the Senior Review
Group which meets quarterly to oversee execution of this two-year
project. Click to see some pictures of the first meeting of the Senior
Review Group
