THE FUNDAMENTAL RESEARCH ACTIVITY IN A TECHNOLOGY-DEPENDENT ORGANIZATION

Abstract

The fundamental research activities of an R and D organization are presented as important both for providing specific research results in areas of potential payoff for the organization and in providing a window between science and technology.

The discussion deals primarily with the opportunities and techniques for providing this window.
