The U.S. government has a decades-long record of helping to achieve a brighter future with advanced IT through two roles: leading the world's IT advancement through aggressive funding of IT R&D, and leading the use of IT for social good, as evidenced by recent NITRD area strategic plans, which seek societal interests as well as technology advancement..." - Dr. Bryan Biegel (Director of the National Coordination Office for Networking and Information).
