Information technology—the set of computer and telecommunications technologies that makes possible computation, communication, and the storage and retrieval of information—has changed the conduct of scientific, engineering, management, and clinical research. This report examines present trends, future potential, and impediments to the use of information technology in support of research. Written from the viewpoint of the researcher using information technology and including many examples, the report offers a number of recommendations directed to two principal audiences: policymakers and leaders of institutions responsible for the support and management of research, and researchers themselves. Recently, computer technology has been joined with telecommunications technology to create a new entity: information technology, which has done much to remove the constraints of speed, cost, and distance from the researcher. On the whole, information technology has led to improvements in research. Researchers can collaborate more widely and efficiently. Much more data are available for analysis. Analytic capabilities have improved significantly, along with the capability to present results as visual images. New information technologies offer further opportunities to improve research. But widespread use of computers in research has not come about without problems. Some of these difficulties are technological, some financial. Underlying many of them are complex institutional and behavioral constraints.
