We can learn the characteristics of Japanese technology by comparing technology the United States and through the analysis of patents which are filed in the United States by the inventors of Japanese and Americans, and this is what will give us the evolution of discoveries of Japan in the areas of major industrial index measuring patents is the specialty of the country in that discovery.
Based on a survey conducted by NSF (National Science Fondation) In the United States Year 1995 , In six areas, industrial (informatics, industrial machinery, TV, radio, electronic industry, cars, rockets), it was noted that Japanese patents more than those established by the Americans, and this is what shows the rapid development of Japan in these areas, according to the same study the Japanese patents contain more modern technology for those established by the United States of America.
Even before the Second World War marked the first Japanese Nobel Prize physicist to its owner«Hedeki Yukawa» And in 1991 , The number of scientists the Nobel Altsalin certificate to five, but the Japanese policy research focused on the sectors of applied development and the civil sector.
Japan's efforts were directed towards expanding the application of technologies, and this during the second half of the eighties years, more than 60% Expenses of research devoted to the Japanese sector development by Applied 25% And 14-13% Only for basic research.
Is it an effort with regard to basic research?
With 10% World of expenses on research and development, Japan has become a pioneer in a number of technologies, but that it must play a role in the scientific field.
In response to the needs of twenty first century, the Japanese research to devote himself to strengthen the scientific base structures, after the task was engineering and this will be accompanied by higher contributions to the state, and international cooperation. This view of the Japanese government proposed at the summit of Venice (Venis) In 1987 The launch of the largest international program on "the limits of the world." (Human science frontier program) Directed to development of knowledge in life sciences. Post giant in the field of chemistry BASF Research project at $ 760 million French francs, which called for by the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Industry (MITI ) Testifies turn on the movement of openness in the research of Japan.
Among the factors is the development of the Japanese resort to strong buy patents that have contributed to the development of important industries: 30.000 Bought a foreign license between 1950 and 1980 at $ 10 billion $ , Which is equivalent to 20% Expenses of research and development to the annual intermediate United States in the same period.
