Abstract
The Federal agencies that participate in the Networking and Information
Technology Research and Development (NITRD) effort work collaboratively
in fundamental, long-term research and development activities to assure
continuing U.S. leadership in advanced computing, networking, communications,
and information technologies. The NITRD agenda focuses on enabling
Federal departments and agencies to fulfill their missions successfully
in the 21st century. This Supplement to the President's FY 2002 Budget
summarizes the major research areas that the NITRD agencies will address
in FY 2002 and outlines long-term research needs in each area. The
report also describes Grand Challenge National Applications of networking
and information technology that will integrate in large-scale systems
the enabling component technologies developed by the NITRD agencies.

Buy American Report
Congress requires information concerning non-U.S. high-performance
computing and communications funding activities. In FY 2001, DARPA
was the only NITRD agency that entered into grants, contracts, cooperative
agreements, or cooperative research and development agreements for
information technology research and development with either 1) a company
other than a company that is either incorporated or located in the
U.S. and that has majority ownership by individuals who are citizens
of the U.S., or 2) an educational institution or nonprofit institution
located outside the U.S. DARPA funded IT research-related awards of
$94,900 to University College, London (UK). In FY 2001, no NITRD procurement
exceeds $1 million for unmanufactured articles, materials, or supplies
mined or produced outside the U.S., or for manufactured articles,
materials, or supplies other than those manufactured in the U.S. substantially
all from articles, materials, or supplies mined, produced, or manufactured
in the U.S.
