Communication efficiency in research and development

Abstract: If communication in research and development is efficient, then the current cognitive situation in any specialty should fully reflect all available relevant information. Available evidence suggests that communication in R & D is not in that sense efficient, and a priori arguments seem to show that it could not be. But we try to show that the evidence and arguments are inconclusive, and that the question of efficiency is an open one. It is also one which information science has an interest in pursuing. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
