Abstract
Abstract : The Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) represents the transformation of the National Airspace System, including our national system of airports, using 21st century technologies to ensure future safety, capacity and environmental needs are met. NextGen will be realized through investments in research and development, technologies, operational changes, and the coordinated efforts of private industry and federal NextGen Partner Agencies, including the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA); the Departments of Transportation (DOT), Defense (DOD), Homeland Security (DHS), and Commerce (DOC); the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA); and the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP). In order to accomplish the NextGen vision a broad range of advanced technologies will be required that will push the state of the art not only in the field of aviation, but in basic sciences, and other disciplines and industries. In order to fully assess the investment options both within the NextGen community and in other relevant fields and industries a common evaluation strategy is required. This paper will propose a set of universal metrics to help translate and normalize technology transfer benefits to help best optimize government, industry, and academia investments.
