The Third Annual Navy Workforce Research and Analysis Conference: Supporting Military Transformation
To facilitate true military transformation, the naval research community must work more closely than ever with leadership so that it can inform, shape, and support this systemic change. To this end, the Center for Naval Analyses (CNA) hosted the Third Annual Navy Workforce Research and Analysis Conference on March 31 and April 1, 2003. The conference brought together Navy's leadership and the research community to discuss how to better integrate today's research and development (R & D) efforts with leadership's evolving manpower, personnel, and training vision. This document relates the conference presentations and discussions to aspects of the CNP's FY03 guidance and the Navy's R & D priorities including efforts to shape the force, better establish manpower requirements, design Sailor-centric systems, leverage new technology, manage careers more effectively, provide servicemembers with a positive Navy experience, and create a seamless military team.
The Expanding Context of European and Mediterranean Security: A Joint Project Between the Center for Naval Analyses (CNA) and Centro Militare Di Studi Strategici (CeMiSS).
CNA and the Centro Militare di Studi Strategici (CeMiSS), the analytical group within the Italian equivalent of the U.S. National Defense University (CASD), agreed to conduct a joint project in 2006 on European and American views of the security situation in Europe, with particular regard for the situation around the Mediterranean Sea. The CeMiSS leader of the project contributed a paper on Italian foreign policy. Daniel Whiteneck compared European and American views on the security situation. H.H. Gaffney discussed hard and soft power, noting that it represents a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Thaddeus Moyseowicz covered the experience and future of multilateral organizations in the Mediterranean context, and Mark Rosen discussed the questions of international regulation of the sea spaces.

Procedures and Software for Assessing Uncertainty in Cost Estimates
With extensive literature on the treatment of uncertainty in cost estimates, and because several uncertainty software packages are now available, the Naval Center for Cost Analysis asked the Center for Naval Analyses to conduct a study with the objective of evaluating the procedures and software that it now employs. This report begins with a discussion of introductory analytical issues and then focuses on the software packages that were evaluated. Additional analytical questions are addressed in connection with those evaluations.
Performance Assessment for the Workplace
Although ability testing has been an American preoccupation since the 1920s, comparatively little systematic attention has been paid to understanding and measuring the kinds of human performance that tests are commonly used to predictâ€"such as success at school or work. Now, a sustained, large-scale effort has been made to develop measures that are very close to actual performance on the job. The four military services have carried out an ambitious study, called the Joint-Service Job Performance Measurement/Enlistment Standards (JPM) Project, that brings new sophistication to the measurement of performance in work settings. Volume 1 analyzes the JPM experience in the context of human res...
