Continuing Innovation in Information Technology: A Workshop

生产信息技术(IT)的行业本身的成功及其产品和服务在我们日常生活中的普及，可能会掩盖行业、政府和学术界在进行IT研究并将其转化为新产品、服务和行业方面所起的相互促进的作用。这个项目将捕捉一些现象的例子，如政府资助的大学研究在多大程度上建立在行业基础上，研究转化为主要行业活动有时需要较长的孵化期，从初步探索到大规模商业部署所需的稳定工作和资金，不同子领域研究进展之间的相互依存关系，以及IT研究生态的复杂性。该项目将在先前工作的基础上，开发更多和/或更深入的实例，并提供关于研究影响和上述实例所列其他现象的最新信息。

The very success of the industries that produce information technology (IT) and the pervasivenessof their products and services in our daily lives can obscure the mutually reinforcingroles that industry, government, and academia play in conducting IT research and its translationinto new products, services, and industries. This project will capture examples of such phenomenaas how much industry builds on government-funded university research, the long incubationperiods sometimes needed for research to be translated into major industry activities, thesteady work and funding required to get from initial exploration to large-scale commercialdeployment, the interdependencies between research advances in different subfields, and thecomplex nature of the IT research ecology. This project will build on earlier work bydeveloping additional and/or more in-depth examples and providing updated informationon research impacts and the other phenomena listed above in the context of these examples.
