Computer Industry Competitive

National Academy of Sciences - Personal Name;

On May 23, 1989, the Computer Science and Technology Board sponsored a colloquium in Washington, D.C., on the competitiveness of computer-related industries. The colloquium attracted a standing-room-only group of invited executives, government officials, academic analysts, and journalists. Participants discussed the structure of computer-related industries, evolving patterns of competition in global markets, and the roles of industry and government in making the most of U.S. strengths in computer-related technologies and markets.
The colloquium was organized by a steering committee chaired by Samuel H. Fuller, vice president of research at Digital Equipment Corporation. Other members of the steering committee included Robert W. Lucky, executive director for research in the communications sciences division of AT&T Bell Laboratories, William J. Spencer, vice president of the corporate research group at Xerox Corporation, and Irving Wladawsky-Berger, vice president of the data systems division and general manager of the Kingston facility at IBM Corporation.
This report is a distillation of the far-ranging colloquium discussions. It has two goals. First, it strives to open a window into the richness of the U.S. computer sector, a collection of interrelated industries that is by and large poorly understood by those outside the computer field. Second, it seeks to illuminate the range and depth of the challenges facing the computer sector. The report is aimed, in particular, at policymakers, but it is also intended to be of interest to leaders in and students of the computer sector.
