TECHNOLOGY PROGRAM

Date for general release Hay 1987 INTRODUCTION

This publication represents the NASA research and technology program for FY 1985. It is a compilation of the "Summary" portions of each of the RTOPs (Research and Technology Objectives and Plans) used for management review and control of research currently in progress throughout NASA. The RTOP Summary is designed to facilitate communication and coordination among concerned technical personnel in government, in industry, and in universities. We believe also that this publication can help to expedite the technology transfer process. The RTOP Summary is arranged in five sections. The first section contains citations and abstracts of the RTOPs. Following this section are four indexes: Subject, Technical Monitor, Responsible NASA Organization, and RTOP Number. The Subject Index is an alphabetical listing of the main subject headings by which the RTOPs have been identified. The Technical Monitor Index is an alphabetical listing of the names of individuals responsible for the RTOP. The Responsible NASA Organization Index is an alphabetical listing of the NASA organizations which developed the RTOPs contained in the Journal. The RTOP Number Index provides a cross-index from the RTOP number assigned by the NASA responsible organization to the corresponding accession number assigned sequentially to the RTOPs in RTOP Summary. As indicated above, responsible technical monitors are listed on the RTOP summaries. Although personal exchanges of a professional nature are encouraged, your consideration is requested in avoiding excessive contact which might be disruptive to ongoing research and development. Any cQmments or suggestions you may have to help us evaluate or improve the effectiveness of the RTOP Summary would be appreciated. These should be forwarded to:
