- Abstract
- An overview is given of grants awarded by the National Bureau of Standards under the Special Foreign Currency Program in Israel authorized by Public Law 480 and its amendments. Each grant is identified by title, principal investigator, institution in Israel, NBS monitor working in close technical touch with the project in Israel, and the monitor's organizational unit within NBS. The relevant work is then described briefly under the three headings "Summary of Description of Project Goals", "Results and Implications to Date: and "List of Publications that Resulted from the Project". To demonstrate the wide use of such grants over the entire Program Structure of NBS, the grant descriptions are ordered by the elements of that Program Structure. Editorial comment on the significance and purpose of the NBS/PL 480 grant program is confinded to a Foreword and Introduction. The editors judge this grant program to have had a high benefit to cost ration from the viewpoint of NBS.
