Book excerpt: The June 2019 OMB Circular No. A-11 provides guidance on preparing the FY 2021 Budget and instructions on budget execution. Released in June 2019, it's printed in two volumes. This is Volume I. Your budget submission to OMB should build on the President's commitment to advance the vision of a Federal Government that spends taxpayer dollars more efficiently and effectively and to provide necessary services in support of key National priorities while reducing deficits. OMB looks forward to working closely with you in the coming months to develop a budget request that supports the President's vision. Most of the changes in this update are technical revisions and clarifications, and the policy requirements are largely unchanged. The summary of changes to the Circular highlights the changes made since last year. This Circular supersedes all previous versions.

We print the paperback book so you don't have to. First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour. It's much more cost-effective to just order the bound paperback from Amazon.com This book includes original commentary which is copyright material. Note that government documents are in the public domain. We print these paperbacks as a service so you don't have to. The books are compact, tightly-bound paperback, full-size (8 1/2 by 11 inches), with large text and glossy covers. 4th Watch Publishing Co. is a HUBZONE SDVOSB. https: //usgovpub.com

This book was released on 1999 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The DoD Basic Research Program is the cutting edge of the Defense Science and Technology Program. For more than 50 years, the Department of Defense has relied on its Basic Research Program to maintain U.S. military technological superiority. This objective has been realized primarily by DoD support for research into scientific and engineering areas of proven or potential importance to defense. DoD researchers also keep a watchful eye on research activities all over the world to prevent technological surprise. As the pace of technology quickens, it has become ever more important to maintain the world-class quality of the DoD research program, and to guide, coordinate, and integrate its many diverse activities. The Basic Research Plan (BRP) presents a comprehensive and reasonably complete overview of the whole DoD research program, presents the rationale for it, outlines its contents and organization, tabulates the funding (by program element as well as by discipline), and concludes with a few examples of its extraordinary accomplishments. The bulk of the funding of the DoD research program supports 12 disciplinary areas, managed by 10 Strategic Planning Groups (SPGs). (Two pairs of related disciplines are grouped together under one SPG.) Each discipline is briefly described. Interdisciplinary research is encouraged and is specifically addressed under three program titles: Strategic Research Areas (SRAs), Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI), and Government-Industry Cooperative University Research Program (GICUR). The program also supports infrastructure through education and training in science and engineering, and university instrumentation under the Defense University Research Instrumentation Program (DURIP).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The following questions are discussed: (I) What is basic research; (II) Why is basic research a Good Thing for the Federal government to support; (III) Why is basic research a Good Thing for the Department of Defense to support; The difficulties of definitions of basic research are presented. Federal and industrial research budgets are compared. The talk leans heavily on the General Welfare clause of the Preamble to the Constitution of the US, with instances drawn from the research sponsored by AFOSR. The changing role of DoD in national research support is discussed. An addendum defends the Clearinghouse for Federal Scientific and Technical Information against an unwarranted criticism in a popular digest magazine. (Author).
Download or read book Strategies to Leverage Research Funding written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-11-27 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1992 the Department of Defense (DOD), through the U.S. Army Medical Research and Material Command, has received congressionally earmarked appropriations for programs of biomedical research on prostate, breast, and ovarian cancer; neurofibromatosis; tuberous sclerosis; and other health problems. Appropriations for these Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs are used to support peer reviewed extramural research project, training, and infrastructure grants. Congress has become concerned about funding increases for these programs given current demands on the military budget. At the request of Congress, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) examined possibilities of augmenting program funding from alternative sources. The resulting IOM book, Strategies to Leverage Research Funding: Guiding DOD's Peer Reviewed Medical Research Programs, focuses on nonfederal and private sector contributions that could extend the appropriated funds without biasing the peer review project selection process.
Download or read book Funding a Revolution written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1999-02-11 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past 50 years have witnessed a revolution in computing and related communications technologies. The contributions of industry and university researchers to this revolution are manifest; less widely recognized is the major role the federal government played in launching the computing revolution and sustaining its momentum. Funding a Revolution examines the history of computing since World War II to elucidate the federal government's role in funding computing research, supporting the education of computer scientists and engineers, and equipping university research labs. It reviews the economic rationale for government support of research, characterizes federal support for computing research, and summarizes key historical advances in which government-sponsored research played an important role. Funding a Revolution contains a series of case studies in relational databases, the Internet, theoretical computer science, artificial intelligence, and virtual reality that demonstrate the complex interactions among government, universities, and industry that have driven the field. It offers a series of lessons that identify factors contributing to the success of the nation's computing enterprise and the government's role within it.

Download or read book Science on a Mission written by Naomi Oreskes and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2021-04-19 with total page 749 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vivid portrait of how Naval oversight shaped American oceanography, revealing what difference it makes who pays for science. What difference does it make who pays for science? Some might say none. If scientists seek to discover fundamental truths about the world, and they do so in an objective manner using well-established methods, then how could it matter who’s footing the bill? History, however, suggests otherwise. In science, as elsewhere, money is power. Tracing the recent history of oceanography, Naomi Oreskes discloses dramatic changes in American ocean science since the Cold War, uncovering how and why it changed. Much of it has to do with who pays. After World War II, the US military turned to a new, uncharted theater of warfare: the deep sea. The earth sciences—particularly physical oceanography and marine geophysics—became essential to the US Navy, which poured unprecedented money and logistical support into their study. Science on a Mission brings to light how this influx of military funding was both enabling and constricting: it resulted in the creation of important domains of knowledge but also significant, lasting, and consequential domains of ignorance. As Oreskes delves into the role of patronage in the history of science, what emerges is a vivid portrait of how naval oversight transformed what we know about the sea. It is a detailed, sweeping history that illuminates the ways funding shapes the subject, scope, and tenor of scientific work, and it raises profound questions about the purpose and character of American science. What difference does it make who pays? The short answer is: a lot.
