Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Declining harvest levels, static agency research budgets, and increasing tension among scientists, managers, and industry members are the legacy of the present research and management institutions in the West Coast groundfish fishery. Cooperative research, the active participation of the commercial fishing industry in scientific research, is receiving increased attention as a potential alternative to current practices. Its strongest attributes are its potential to improve the spatial and temporal coverage of fisheries data collection and its potential to reduce marginal research costs. Despite these potential benefits, there are several obstacles to adopting cooperative research on a large scale including concerns about biased data, compatibility and continuity with current data gathering regimes, and the motivations of the participants. This paper examines the role that attitudes, beliefs, and perceptions play in influencing one's willingness to participate in cooperative research. Six focused discussions were held with industry, scientists, and managers in the West Coast groundfish fishery to define the key issues of cooperative research and to assist in designing a written questionnaire. The questionnaire was mailed to scientists, managers, and industry members in the groundfish fishery to elicit responses on issues including the current science and management process, uncertainty, industry-scientist working relationships, and the costs and benefits of potential cooperative research projects. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to examine response differences among groups, and discriminant analysis was employed to identify characteristics that differentiated among groups formed as a result of their survey responses. Results indicated that both scientists and industry believe cooperative research has potential for improving fisheries science, however there were significant differences between the groups on most other issues. Generally, industry respondents were more critical of the industry-scientist working relationship and scientists' and managers' commitment to cooperation than were the scientists and managers themselves. Scientists tended to be more skeptical than industry about the direct involvement of industry in fisheries science projects such as port interview programs and independent industry scientist research organizations. Both groups demonstrated considerable heterogeneity, although industry tended to hold a greater diversity of opinions and perceptions than did scientists. Significant differences on certain issues were often explained by one's degree of involvement in the management process, state of residence, employer, job description, and gear type. The results of this survey provide useful data for the selection and design of future cooperative research projects and identify areas upon which scientists, managers, and industry need to improve if cooperative research is to play a larger role in fisheries science.

Book Cooperative Research Centers and Technical Innovation

Download or read book Cooperative Research Centers and Technical Innovation written by Craig Boardman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-09-18 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when scientific and technical innovation now requires a multitude of heterogeneous inputs and expertise from the public and private sectors alike, cooperative research centers (CRCs) have emerged as the predominant vehicle for cross-sector collaboration. In the U.S. alone, there are thousands of CRCs on university campuses, and agencies like the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, Department of Defense, and more recently the Department of Energy fund CRCs to address some of the nation’s most formidable challenges with science and technology, including cancer and other diseases, terrorism surveillance and the detection of weapons of mass destruction, and new energy technologies and smart energy grid development. Industry oftentimes participates in CRCs for access to knowledge, capacity development, and to mitigate risk. This volume includes research investigating CRCs from North America, Europe, Australia, and Asia to explore the dynamics of CRCs, including but not limited to resource allocation, structure, level of sponsorship, organization and membership, management and operations, objectives and goals, and in doing so identifies both differences and similarities across institutional and national contexts. The volume sheds light on the role of CRCs in promoting innovation, S&T policy, and economic development, and on the practical aspects of successful CRC management. Moreover, the works included in the volume consider the implications for the various stakeholder groups (firms, universities, researchers, students, policymakers) invested in CRCs.

Book Cooperative Research and Development  The Industry   University   Government Relationship

Download or read book Cooperative Research and Development The Industry University Government Relationship written by Albert N. Link and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We must all hang together or surely we will all hang separately. Benjamin Franklin The significant apathy that characterized relationships between indus try and universities and the adversarial nature of relationships between industry and government have both faded rapidly in the 1980s as the realities of global competition have surfaced in the United States. Both industry and government leaders articulate a number of constructs for regaining our competitiveness in world markets. One of the more fre quent strategies prescribed in this new competitiveness era is cooperation. Different individuals or groups may espouse different definitions, inter pretations, or areas of emphasis, but the overall importance of this concept is substantial. Although examples of cooperative research have existed for several decades, the number and variety of relationships have expanded rapidly in the 1980s as corporations, universities, and governments have embraced this strategy. Joint ventures involving two or three firms increased from under 200 per year in the 1970s to over 400 per year by the mid-1980s. Multiple-firm cooperative arrangements are a more recent phenomenon, made possible by the National Cooperative Research Act of 1984. By mid- 1988,81 of these industry-level consortia had formed under the provisions of the 1984 Act. The rapid growth in cooperative research and development (R&D) is primarily a response to the pressures of international competition. As a corporate strategy, cooperative R&D meets short-term needs for assets to implement new approaches for coping with intensifying competition.

Book Cooperative Innovation  Science And Technology Policy

Download or read book Cooperative Innovation Science And Technology Policy written by Fredrick Betz and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2019-01-04 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research cooperation in a nation is a fundamental key to national competitiveness in technology that supports growth in a national economy. To fully understand why some nations are more successful in innovation than others, one must examine the structure and process of knowledge creation and use — the Science & Technology policy of a nation.National innovation requires progress both in Science & Technology, and also in economy. Research cooperation for innovation is necessary, since science, technology, and production are performed in different sectors of a nation. Universities conduct research science, and science discovers nature. Governments support most of the research in universities, and therefore are the principal sponsors of science. Industry develops most technology and commercializes technology into economically useful products/services. The structure and process of knowledge in a nation thus requires (1) creation of knowledge in science, (2) translation of science into technology, and (3) design of technology into commercialization of utility. At a national level, innovation is thus a complicated concept — proposing a need to identify the proper ways that government-university-industry can cooperate to advance knowledge and economically benefit from innovation. Special programs in Science & Technology policy that have proven beneficial in fostering research cooperation for national competitiveness will be covered in this book.Cooperative Innovation: Science & Technology Policy helps readers understand a practical science & technology policy for a nation. Its contents are particularly useful for government administrators of research, industrial research directors, university research directors, and students of science & technology policy.
