COFS 1 Guest Investigator Program

The process for selecting guest investigators for participation in the Control of Flexible Structures (COFS)-1 program is described. Contracts and grants will be awarded in late CY87. A straw-man list of types of experiments and a distribution of the experiments has been defined to initiate definition of an experiments package which supports development and validation of control structures interaction technology. A schedule of guest investigator participation has been developed

A STUDY OF MODERNIZATION AND INNOVATION IN THE SEMICONDUCTOR INDUSTRY OF THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA

This thesis examines the factors that influence the continued development of the Chinese semiconductor industry by examining both broad trends and specific company case studies. It assesses internal and external influences on Chinese chip innovation and development, and finds external sources to be much more impactful. China’s industrial policy targeting semiconductor industry growth does not encourage innovation in spite of its publicity. Decentralized distribution of financing by the national and local governments and the tendency to choose specific companies as beneficiaries stifle indigenous innovation. External contributions are largely legitimate, including direct investment, training and expertise, licensing of designs and patents for production and use in China, and participation in joint ventures. Industrial espionage is also an external factor, including patenting designs from overseas in China, persuading employees of foreign competitors to provide designs and methods in exchange for bribes or positions, and direct theft of designs during joint ventures. The study finds that despite China’s significant investment in chip industry growth, it has not successfully motivated innovation as it has imitation. Even in cases of genuine indigenous innovation, Chinese companies are reliant on overseas methods to produce modern chips, and likely will remain so for some time.Distribution Statement A.
