NASA/DoD Aerospace Knowledge Diffusion Research Project. Paper Thirty Three. Technical Communications Practices and the Use of Information Technologies as Reported by Dutch and U.S. Aerospace Engineers

Abstract

As part of Phase 4 of the NASA/DOD Aerospace Knowledge Diffusion Research Project, two studies were conducted that investigated the technical communications practices of Dutch and U.S. aerospace engineers and scientists. A self-administered questionnaires was distributed to aerospace engineers and scientists at National Aerospace Laboratory (The Netherland) and NASA Ames Research Center (U.S.), and the NASA Langley Research Center (U.S.). This paper presents responses of the Dutch and U.S. participants to selected questions about four of the seven project objectives: determining the importance of technical communications to aerospace engineering professional, investigating the production of technical communications, examining the use and importance of computer and information technology, and exploring the use of electronic networks.
