Public Accountability : Evaluating Technology-Based Institutions, Paperback / softback Book

Public Accountability : Evaluating Technology-Based Institutions Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Public Accountability: Evaluating Technology-Based Institutions presents guidelines for evaluating the research performance of technology-based public institutions, and illustrates these guidelines through case studies conducted at one technology-based public institution, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

The aim of this book is to demonstrate that a clear, more precise response to the question of performance accountability is possible through the systematic application of evaluation methods to document value. The authors begin with a review of the legislative history of fiscal accountability beginning with the Budget and Accounting Act of 1921, and ending with the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993.

A discussion of existing applicable economic models, methods, and associated metrics follows.

The book concludes with evaluation case studies.
