This paper presents the results of the data collection across 18 countries, demonstrating that it is possible to produce new policy relevant indicators on public funding of R&D in addition to those envisaged in the OECD Frascati Manual. The initial findings highlight interesting differences across countries in terms of their approaches to R&D funding.

This report analyses initiatives in a number of countries through which end-users are notified by Internet service providers when their computer is identified as being compromised by malicious software and encouraged to take action to mitigate the problem. It reviews the core dimensions of these initiatives and provides high-level guidance for future policy development.

The emerging "green" economy is a "smarter" economy that has increased demand for ICT-skilled jobs not only in the ICT sector, but more rapidly across the wider non-ICT economy. The further creation of new jobs can only occur, however, if the right mix of skills and competences are available in the labour market. Shortages of required ICT-related skills have been observed in some OECD countries, and this is particularly true for skills related to green ICTs.

International production, trade and investments are increasingly organised within so-called global value chains (GVCs) where the different stages in the production process are located across different economies. Until now, GVCs have been largely discussed from a conceptual and theoretical view, but empirical work on international fragmentation has stayed a bit behind. This review of the available data and indicators on GVCs shows their increasing importance in today’s global economy, but at the same time clearly highlights some major shortcomings.

This paper provides estimates of the economic value created by broadband Internet using measures of new gross domestic product and consumer surplus. It finds that the economic value created in 30 OECD countries correlates roughly with the overall size of their broadband economies. In addition, price and quality data from the United States suggest that widespread adoption of broadband Internet has occurred without a dramatic decline in prices, which reflects an unobserved increase in broadband quality that conventional government statistics do not capture.

This paper utilises an economic model that looks at the end result – observations on changes in the pattern of consumer spending behaviour – and econometrically estimates the extent of the link between these behavioural changes and their drivers: traditional economic stimuli as well as changes in the economic environment due to advances in technology and improved provision of public sector IT infrastructure.

The growing importance of GVCs in the international organisation of production increasingly challenges the traditional way of measuring countries’ export performance and hence international competitiveness. This working paper discusses the export performance of countries along the value chain by distinguishing upstream activities (i.e. the production of intermediate inputs) and more downstream activities (e.g. the final assembly of products).

The wealth of nations and their economic fortunes are ultimately driven by productivity. More productive workers earn higher wages and experience higher living standards than past generations. Hence, studying the driving forces behind productivity growth is an important question for researchers and policymakers alike. This paper presents a review of existing studies on dynamic, macroeconomic effects of ICT on productivity and growth.

Measuring the economic and social impacts of the Internet presents several challenges. This working paper reviews the rapidly changing nature of the Internet, the need for more granular data in order to understand its complexity, and the phenomenon of big data, which makes it possible to measure almost anything.

The growing availability of innovative digital goods and services have provided consumers worldwide with numerous benefits. While consumers are increasingly purchasing them via a wide range of channels, e.g., e-commerce, social networking and cloud computing platforms, the level of consumer protection accorded to digital content products often differs from that accorded to physical goods. Also, misleading or unfair commercial practices in this field have raised concerns. Ways that consumers could fully profit from the digital economy will be explored at this workshop.

Synthetic biology is a modular approach to building biological products that allows new products to be built, and tested better, faster and cheaper than existing approaches and on a larger scale. There are today a number of examples of products or processes derived from synthetic biology both in the laboratory and in production. The OECD, in conjunction with Human Genome Organisation (HUGO) and the Australian Government, will host two separate meetings related to Synthetic Biology in Sydney, Australia.
