摘要：

Science and Engineering Indicators, a compendium of quantitative measures of the state of the U.S. science and engineering enterprise, in its review of the 2008 Indicators, concluded a report called 'Research and Development: Essential Foundation for U.S. Competitiveness in a Global Economy.' The Board identified several concerns related to U.S. industrial competitiveness, including data on the status of basic research in the U.S., data on high- technology manufacturing and trade, and measures of intellectual property and innovation. R&D funding trends show that since 1980 industry support for R&D in this country has exceeded federal support. The Board urges federal statistical agencies to develop and enhance metrics that allow the tracking of manufacturing and services in high- technology industries in the global economy. The Board recommends all sectors work to increase communication between academic and industrial science and engineering so that knowledge generated can be applied efficiently.
