JPRS Report Science and Technology: Japan, New Technology Pending Commercialization.
Abstract
Foreign Broadcast Information Service (FBI S) and Joint Publications Research Service (JPRS) publications contain political, military, economic, environmental, and sociological news, commentary, and other information, as well as scientific and technical data and reports. All information has been obtained from foreign radio and television broadcasts, news agency transmissions, newspapers, books, and periodicals. Items generally are processed from the first or best available sources. It should not be inferred that they have been disseminated only in the medium, in the language, or to the area indicated. Items from foreign language sources are translated; those from English-language sources are transcribed. Except for excluding certain diacritics, FBlS renders personal names and place-names in accordance with the romanization systems approved for U.S. Government publications by the U.S. Board of Geographic Names. This document concerns science and technology in Japan--new technology pending commercialization. Text Since its founding in 1961, the Research Development Corporation of Japan (JRDC) has worked through the Commissioned Development Program and Development Mediation Program to promote the development of new technology of domestic origin. With respect to technology transfer, in particular, the JRDC has since 1967 mediated development with corporations through a program of collection and survey-evaluation, focusing consistently on patents held in Japan by national research institutions and universities. More recently the JRDC has put more effort into technology transfer regionally throughout the country, working closely with local technological research institutions and vigorously promoting development mediation for local companies.
