Title: A National Network for Critical Technology Assessment: A PilotAbstract: The National Network for Critical Technology Assessment Pilot seeks to lay the foundation for the ability to assess U.S. global competitiveness on key emerging technologies and identify where and how Federal science and technology investments can be applied to advance U.S. competitiveness and the well-being of U.S. citizens. Using data, advanced analytics, and expert insights, the national network pilot effort will identify methods that could be employed to derive policy insights and develop an understanding of where additional analytical tools and data resources are needed to drive comprehensive analysis and decision-making. Bringing together a multidisciplinary group of experts, the national network will pair a top-down approach to scan global capabilities in knowledge, production, and human capital with a bottom-up approach to develop and demonstrate methods to identify opportunities for science and technology investment to advance national competitiveness. The bottom-up approach will be accomplished through deep dives in four key technology areas: artificial intelligence, biotechnology, energy storage, and semiconductors. The outcomes of both approaches will be synthesized into a final Critical Technology Assessment report.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

摘要：国家关键技术评估网络试点旨在为评估美国在关键新兴技术方面的全球竞争力奠定基础，并确定联邦科技投资可以在何处以及如何应用，以提高美国的竞争力和美国公民的福祉。利用数据、高级分析和专家见解，国家网络试点工作将确定可用于获得政策见解的方法，并了解哪些地方需要额外的分析工具和数据资源，以推动全面分析和决策。国家网络将汇集一个多学科专家小组，将自上而下的方法与自下而上的方法相结合，以扫描知识、生产和人力资本方面的全球能力，并开发和演示确定科学和技术投资机会的方法，以提高国家竞争力。自下而上的方法将通过深入研究人工智能、生物技术、能源存储、半导体等4个关键技术领域来实现。这两种方法的结果将综合成一份最后的关键技术评估报告。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
