Abstract
An overview is given of grants awarded by the National Bureau of Standards under the Special Foreign Currency Program (SFCP) in Yogoslavia, authorized by Public Law 480 and other legislation. Each grant is identified by title, principal investigator, institution in Yugoslavia, NBS monitor, and the monitor's organizational unit within NBS. The work is then described briefly under the three headings "Summary Description of Project Goals," "Results and Implications to Date" and "List of Publications that Resulted from the Project. To demonstrate the relevance of such grants to the programs of NBS, the grant descriptions are ordered by the elements of that Program Structure. The significance and purpose of the NBS/SFCP grant program are discussed in the Foreword, the Introduction and an Appendix. The NBS monitors and the program manager judge this grant program to have had a high benefit to cost ratio from the viewpoint of NBS.
