Continuing Innovation in Information Technology: A Workshop

生产信息技术（IT）的行业的成功及其产品和服务在我们日常生活中的普及，可能会掩盖工业界、政府和学术界在进行IT研究及其对新产品、服务和行业的推广方面所扮演的相互依赖的角色。这个项目将捕捉这样的现象的例子：有多少产业建立在政府资助的大学研究，研究转化为主要的产业活动有时需要很长的孵化期，从最初的探索到大规模的商业部署需要稳定的工作和资金，不同子领域的研究进展之间的相互依赖关系，以及IT研究生态的复杂性。该项目将在早期工作的基础上，开发更多和/或更深入的例子，并提供有关研究影响和上述这些例子中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.
