- Articles and reports: 11F0027M2004027Geography: CanadaDescription:
The paper examines how Canadian manufacturing plants have responded to reductions in tariff barriers between Canada and the rest of world over the past two decades.
Release date: 2004-12-14 - Articles and reports: 88F0006X2004018Description:
This paper examines the first Canadian attempt to assess the impacts on the economy of the transfer of technology for federally-funded research.
Release date: 2004-11-02 - Articles and reports: 88-003-X20040037435Geography: CanadaDescription:
This study looks at growth in labour productivity in manufacturing companies that increased their use of advanced technology during the mid-1990s.
Release date: 2004-10-29 - 4. The Effect of Changing Technology Use on Plant Performance in the Canadian Manufacturing Sector ArchivedArticles and reports: 11F0027M2004020Geography: CanadaDescription:
This paper investigates how changes in technology use of individual plants in the Canadian manufacturing sector are related to two measures of performance --productivity growth and market-share growth.
Release date: 2004-07-27 - 5. Information and communication technology industries and technological change, 2000 to 2002 ArchivedArticles and reports: 88-003-X20040026927Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article looks at the information and communication technology (ICT) industries and reports on technological changes.
Release date: 2004-06-30 - 6. Literacy counts ArchivedArticles and reports: 81-004-X20040016853Description:
A key indicator of educational progress is the extent to which schools are successful in equipping their students with strong literacy skills. Do educational systems that have the highest average literacy scores also tend to have the smallest gaps in achievement between high-scoring and low-scoring students?
Release date: 2004-04-30 - 7. An Historical Comparison of Technological Change, 1998-2000 and 2000-2002, in the Private and Public Sectors ArchivedArticles and reports: 88F0006X2004007Description:
This paper presents data on technological change that have been made comparable from the Survey of Electronic Commerce and Technology (SECT) for 2000 and 2002. It shows that when comparable data for the 1998 to 2000 and 2000 to 2002 periods (based on the definition and survey universe employed by SECT 2000) are used, the propensity to adopt new technologies in the private sector has remained constant at about 40%. The rate of technology adoption in the public sector remained at four out of five organizations introducing significantly improved technologies (a level about twice as high as that for the private sector). This rate also shows little change from 2000. The paper presents the comparable technological change data, while explaining differences in the wording of the survey questions and universe between the two reference years. Information is provided for private and public sectors, selected employment size groups and sectors of both private and public sectors.
Release date: 2004-03-09 - Articles and reports: 88F0006X2004008Description:
For 2002, the rate of technology adoption in the public sector stood at close to double that of the private sector: 82% versus 42%. Quite obviously, not all turn-of-the-century technological change within the public sector was directly linked to the Year 2000 phenomena. Rather, public sector organizations appear to refresh their technologies on a continual basis. It also appears that the public sector remains committed to supporting the acquisition of significantly improved technologies through training.
This paper is based on information from the 2002 Survey of Electronic Commerce and Technology (SECT) and concentrates on the acquisition of significantly improved technologies in the public sector. To provide context, comparisons are made with the private sector, with special attention given to employment size groups. The paper outlines the methods employed to acquire new technologies. It also provides an overview of three sectors within the public sector: educational services, health care and social services, and public administration.
Release date: 2004-03-09 - Articles and reports: 88-003-X20040016794Geography: CanadaDescription:
For two full days, more than 20 theorists, empiricists and policy developers from North America and Europe discussed innovation from different perspective. They sought common understanding of the issues and consensus on where work on innovation should be going in the medium- and longer-term. This meeting was part of the foresight program of Science, Innovation and Electronic Information Division at Statistics Canada. Many valuable insights were gained as members of different communities of discourse exchanged their knowledge and arrived at common conclusions.
Release date: 2004-03-05 - Articles and reports: 88F0006X2004004Description:
These notes capture some of the presentations and the subsequent discussions that took place during the meeting of Statistics Canada's Science, Innovation and Electronic Information Division. For two full days, over 20 people talked about innovation from different perspectives and sought common understanding of the issues and consensus on where work on the subject should take the form of medium or longer terms. The meeting had a Canadian bias as it was part of the foresight progam of the Science, Innovation and Electronic Information Division, but it would not have been as productive had Jan Fagerberg not been able to join the group and share the work of the Towards a European Area of Research and Innovation (TEARI) project, which he leads. The meeting was further enriched by the insights gained as members of different communities of discourse exchanged their knowledge and arrived at common conclusions.
