Abstract

Based on the author's recent survey in Japan and the United States, this paper describes the principal ways how industrial researchers in those countries use certain new technologies resulting from university research. Personal communication and technical collaboration turned out to be key factors in the rapid diffusion of research results. However, Japanese government agencies and professional societies are much more active in organizing and energizing the civilian technology-transfer process than are their American counterparts.
