Rapid technological change in communications, computing, and information management continue to promise further gains in productivity, a phenomenon often referred to as the New Economy. To better understand this phenomenon, the National Academies Board on Science, Technology, and Economic Policy (STEP) initiated a project to better measure the contributions of different elements of the oenew economy (semiconductors, computers, software, and telecommunications) and to develop policies to meet the needs of these growth-enhancing industries. Accompanied by four workshop reports, this summary volume describes the steps required to better measure and sustain the benefits of this oenew economy in the sectors examined.Measuring and sustaining the new economyInformation technologyEconomic aspectsUnited StatesTechnological innovationsEconomic aspectsUnited StatesSemiconductor industryUnited StatesInformation technologyEconomic aspectsTechnological innovationsEconomic aspectsSemiconductor industry338/.0640973Jorgenson Dale W(Dale Weldeau),1933-140875Wessner Charles W857991MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910962230303321Enhancing productivity growth in the information age4351422UNINA
