A symposium on technology transfer & public policy that describes & assesses efforts to harness scientific & technological resources for economic development in international competition. In Academic Perceptions of University-Firm Technology Transfer, Dianne Rahm (U of South Florida, Tampa) draws from a survey of academic researchers in the US's top universities to assess the extent of technology transfer between universities & industry. In A Comparative Analysis of Civilian Technology Strategies among Some Nations, Leonard L. Lederman (National Science Foundation, Washington, DC 20550) reviews the civilian technology policies of France, the Federal Republic of Germany, Japan, GB, & the US, comparing data on research & development funding, science, engineering personnel, & technological outputs. In Moving Towards an American Industrial Technology Policy, Paul Teske (State U of New York, Stony Brook) & Renee Johnson argue that the US emphasis on civilian technology, targeted manufacturing, & state-level technology programs is leading to a more coherent industrial technology policy than in the past. In The Politics of International Technology Transfer: Lessons from the Korean Experience, Sung Deuk Hahm (Georgetown U, Washington, DC), L. Christopher Plein, & Richard Florida analyze technology transfer patterns from the US & Japan to South Korea, 1962-1992. In Evaluating Government Technology Transfer: Early Impacts of the "Cooperative Technology Paradigm," Barry Bozeman (Georgia Instit of Technology, Atlanta) builds on earlier efforts to document the impact of technology tranfer in government laboratories, finding that the % of labs involved in technology transfer increased dramatically between 1987-1990. In Technology Transfer and the Federal Laboratories: A Midterm Assessment of Cooperative Research, Evan Michael Berman (U of Miami, Coral Gables, FL) evaluates the Cooperative Research & Development Agreement (CRADA) process, finding that there are significant legal obstacles to the use of CRADAs. In Public Policy and Emerging Sources of Technology and Technological Information Available to Industry, J.David Roessner (Georgia Instit of Technology, Atlanta) & Anne Wise report the perceptions of technology transfer managers in US manufacturing firms toward federal & university labs & identify the types of firms that are best positioned to utilize externally available technological resouces. In Defense Conversion and Dual-Use Technology: The Push Toward Civil-Military Integration, Linda Brandt (Industrial Coll of the Armed Forces, National Defense U) explores the concept of defense conversion as it relates to the defense industry, particularly dual-use technology & its applications. In Technology Transfer and Public Policy: Lessons from a Case Study, Gary W. Matkin (U of California, Berkeley) examines why the U of California has been unable to establish either a nonprofit foundation to manage its considerable portfolio of intellectual property or a for-profit company to fund development & start-up efforts. In Technology Transfer from University to Industry: A Large-Scale Experiment with Technology Development and Commercialization, Yong S. Lee (Iowa State U, Ames) & Richard Gaertner assess whether research-intensive universities can produce economically viable technology efficiently by focusing on precommercial technology development research. 16 Tables, 13 Figures, 203 References.
