Adjustments in the funding of research and development are summarized by major R&D agency, and Federal expenditures…

Presented are data based on the revised 1982 federal budget indicating that national research and development (R&D) spending should increase significantly by 1982, particularly in the area of national defense. Summaries are presented, in chart form, of past and projected financial support for basic research, applied research and development. (SK)

Focus is on the $30.6 billion portion of the federal budget for fiscal year 1980 that is allotted to research and development. Budgets discussed include those of colleges and universities, the National Institute of Health, National Science Foundation, Defense Department, Agriculture Department, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and…

Compares federal research and development funding for 1976 through 1978 in terms of agency breakdown and type of research. (MLH)

Described is the federal government's budgeting process for allocating resources to research and development (R&D). The report includes: an overview of R&D in context of the total budget, a review of R&D budget data, identification of recurring issues and issues concerning the analysis of R&D budgets, an analysis of the FY 1977 budget, and a…

Where research activities operate under "fixed" budgetary and resource conditions, allocations of funds must be carefully planned for effective program implementation. Although relatively little information is available on how small research units could use the principles of programed budgeting, a technique for ascertaining program…

This report documents study efforts to obtain information regarding the organization and performance of research and development in Pennsylvania State departments and agencies. Departmental procedures for determining research priorities, performers, project administration, and information dissemination were examined; and the relationship of these…

Summarizes President Carter's 1982 budget proposal for research and development (R and D) in science, technology, and related areas, with largest increases going to defense, and NASA. Indicates that R and D money could be affected by the Reagan Administration budget cuts. (SK)

This report is the 30th in a series that covers research and development (R&D) as shown in successive Presidential budgets.
