- Abstract
- An overview is given of grants awarded by the National Bureau of Standards under the Special Foreign Currency Program in India, authorized by Public Law 480 and its amendments. Each grant is identified by title, principal investigator, institution in India, NBS monitor charged with working in close technical touch with the project in India, and the monitor's organizational unit within NBS. The relevant work is then described briefly under the three headings "Summary Description of Project Goals," "Results and Implications to Data," 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/SFCP grant program is confined to a Foreword and Introduction. The editors judge this grant program to have had a high benefit to cost ratio from the viewpoint of NBS.
