Learning From Science And Technology Policy Evaluation: Experiences From The United States And Europe, Philip Shapira, Stefan Kuhlmann
Learning From Science And Technology Policy Evaluation: Experiences From The United States And Europe, Philip Shapira, Stefan Kuhlmann
Philip Shapira
Learning from Science and Technology Policy Evaluation, edited by Philip Shapira and Stefan Kuhlmann, presents US and European experiences and insights on the evaluation of policies and programs to foster research, innovation, and technology (RIT). In recent years, policymakers have promoted RIT policies to accelerate scientific and technological development in emerging fields, encourage new patterns of research collaboration and commercialization and enhance national and regional economic competitiveness. At the same time, budgetary pressures and new public management approaches have strengthened demands for RIT performance measurement and evaluation. The contributors, leading experts in science and technology policy and evaluation, analyze and …

Im Oktober 2000 hat die Europäische Kommission eine Sondierung zur Patentier-barkeit software-bezogener Erfindungen eingeleitet. Gegenwärtig beraten die Mit-gliedstaaten des Europäischen Patentübereinkommens beim Europäischen Patent-amt darüber, ob die diesbezüglichen Einschränkung für die Patentierung aus dem Patentübereinkommen gestrichen werden soll. Hintergrund dieser Diskussionen ist die Befürchtung, dass das Fehlen EU-weit einheitlicher Rechtsvorschriften die Wettbewerbsfähigkeit und das Wirtschaftswachstum der Europäischen Union hemmen könnte [4, 5]. Auch der im Frühjahr 2002 vorgelegte Richtlinienvorschlag der Europäischen Kommission wird kontrovers debattiert; eine Lösung die den In-teressen aller betroffenen Akteure berücksichtigt scheint auch heute noch in weiter Ferne zu sein [8].

The importance of information and communication technologies in everyday life is increasing strongly. The growing penetration of PCs in households and offices and the almost ubiquitous use of mobile communication devices are vivid examples for this development.
The key drivers influencing the penetration, usage patterns and specific energy consumption of IC-equipment were examined and a bottom-up analysis of the direct energy consumption of ICT-equipment in households and offices was made for 2001 resulting an energy demand of 38 TWh. In addition, projections for the years 2005 and 2010 were developed based on the base year consumption and the key driving …
Peirce's "Diagrammatic Reasoning" As A Solution Of The Learning Paradox, Michael H.G. Hoffmann
Peirce's "Diagrammatic Reasoning" As A Solution Of The Learning Paradox, Michael H.G. Hoffmann
Michael H.G. Hoffmann
How can we reach “new” levels of knowledge if “new” means that there is something “evolved” that cannot be generated simply by deduction or by induction from what has been given before. The paper’s first goal is to show that two paradigmatic attempts at solving this so-called “learning paradox,” Plato’s apriorism and Aristotle’s inductivism, form two horns of a dilemma: While the inductivist cannot justify any representation of data without assuming a priori given hypotheses, the apriorist cannot justify why a certain application of given ideas is correct without being caught in an infinite regress. The second goal is to …
