Volume 6 of the hearing record covers three days of testimony by government and private representatives of agencies and organizations involved in science and technology, university personnel, and industry before the special task force studying the federal role in the research infrastructure. Technology advances, particularly in area of supercomputers, have intensified the need for a federal role. Financial support to assist universities in acquiring state-of-the-art technology is needed to overcome widening obsolescence in instrumentation. Six appendices with financial documentation and reports submitted for the record by the Defense Department, the National Association of Independent Schools, the National Institutes of Health, and others, follows the testimony of the 12 witnesses, who participated in three panels during the hearing.
