      This report examines the operations of the APT, reviews its extensive assessment program, and provides NRC Committee findings concerning the ATP's operations and recommendations for potential improvements to the program. The report includes a summary of a major conference held in April 2000 as well as seven papers, including surveys of the industry participants or users of the ATP program, a summary of the results of fifty awards, detailed assessments of major joint ventures, and a description of the current selection process. It is the most comprehensive study to date of the program's origins, operations, achievements, and assessment. Its conclusion: the program works.Table of ContentsFront MatterForeword and Executive SummaryPrefaceBackgroundOverview of the PapersSummary of Symposium ProceedingsFindings and RecommendationsWelcomePanel I: The ATP Objective: Addressing the Financing Gap forEnabling TechnologiesPanel II: ATP's Assessment ProgramPanel III: Stimulating R&D InvestmentPanel IV: Assessing Progress: Case Study ClusterPanel V: Assessing the ATP Assessment Program: Challenges andPolicy IssuesThe ATP Competition StructureLeveraging Research and Development: The Impact of the AdvancedTechnology ProgramEstimating Economic Benefits from ATP Funding of New MedicalTechnologiesEnhanced R&D Efficiency in an ATP-funded Joint VentureEstimating Future Benefits from ATP Funding of Digital Data StoragePerspectives on the Determinants of Success in ATP-sponsoredR&D Joint Ventures: The Views of ParticipantsTaking a Step Back: An Early Results Overview of Fifty ATP AwardsAnnex A.
