The Technical Assistance Center, at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, is a cooperative effort between the University and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to facilitate the transfer of technology to the public sector. The Federal Technology Transfer Act of 1986 was established to provide a means of distributing a variety of technologies to a variety of environments, including both corporate and municipal.
The products we distribute represent years of research and development and are being used in a wide variety of applications worldwide. Sustainment Management Systems (SMS) combine the latest in computer technology with the most current research in asset management to provide you with powerful assessment and forecasting toolsat an affordable cost.
The major goal of the AMAST conferences is to promote research towards setting software technology on a firm, mathematical basis. Work towards this goal is a collaborative, international effort with contributions from both academia and industry.
