The National Science Foundation's Division of Science Resources Studies (SRS) has a legislatively mandated responsibility to collect, compile, and analyze information related to science and technology resources and the outputs and impacts of those resources. The mandate constitutes a broad charter requiring diverse activities. The products of these activities are useful to a heterogeneous clientele, varying from governmental science and technology policymakers to institutional managers and research analysts. This compilation of project summaries has been prepared to provide various SRS users with a rapid overview of all current and recently completed SRS projects. All projects are either ongoing or completed during fiscal year 1985. The summaries include information on objectives, findings, methodology, authorship, and resulting publications/availability. Projects are organized in the following groups: (1) overview projects; (2) human resources (scientists, engineers, and technicians), subdivided according to characteristics, education, employment, and projections; (3) funding of science and technology, subdivided according to government, industry, universities and colleges and others; (4) outputs and impacts, subdivided according to innovations and inventions, bibliometrics, economic implications, and other areas; and (5) international science and technology. Lists of principal investigators and SRS intramural and extramural publications for 1975-1985 are provided in appendices. (JN)
