Public Accountability: Evaluating Technology-Based Institutions
presents guidelines for evaluating the research performance of
technology-based public institutions, and illustrates these
guidelines through case studies conducted at one technology-based
public institution, the National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST). The aim of this book is to demonstrate that a
clear, more precise response to the question of performance
accountability is possible through the systematic application of
evaluation methods to document value. The authors begin with a
review of the legislative history of fiscal accountability
beginning with the Budget and Accounting Act of 1921, and ending
with the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993. A
discussion of existing applicable economic models, methods, and
associated metrics follows. The book concludes with evaluation case
studies.
