Abstract

This presentation provides valuable references to various manuals/guidelines that can discriminate differences between indicators, such as those for Research and Development, and those that apply to Science and Technology. The reference manuals can provide guidelines for the collection and interpretation of data and for international comparisons of data, statistics and indicators. At the same time, these standards are supported by an international infrastructure. Manuals provide a language of discourse and behave as codified knowledge. Patents; Technological Balance of Payments; Human Resources for Science and Technology; Bibliometrics; Innovation Systems, and others provide standardized indicators from which to analyze diverse levels of innovation.
