This chapter provides an overview of the electronic records management initiatives by the Records and Engineering Document Services Group at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a Federally Funded Research and Development Center managed by the California Institute of Technology for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The Records and Engineering Document Services Group’s activities included the investigation of add-on records management applications to existing information technology systems, as well as follow-on work using a “Records Management-IT Compliance Checklist” to measure the records management capabilities of IT systems in development.

This article provides a summary of the current policies and objectives of the US National Optical Astronomy Observatories (NOAO) in relation to technology transfer activities. NOAO, as one of the world's major astronomical facilities, is engaged in research and development in many areas of frontier technology. It now sees as a significant objective the development of increased interaction with outside organizations to add value, through technology transfer, to its federally funded research and technology efforts.

In October 2016, the United States announced the release of the National Artificial Intelligence Research and Development Strategic Plan, which lays out a strategic plan for Federally-funded research and development in AI.  As a coleader of the Task Force that developed this plan, I was asked to discuss its creation in an invited presentation at AAAI 2017.  This article is based on that presentation, which outlines not only the Plan itself, but also provides insight into its goals and objectives, and background on how the Plan was created.
