Description

Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) has published more than twenty-thousand technical reports on the internet to provide detailed results of research and development activities. In JAEA technical reports, detailed results, experimental data, findings etc. are recorded. Technical report is effective for communication among scientists and engineers for research development in a big science like nuclear research. The number of downloads of JAEA technical reports is over 4.7 million per a year. Technical reports have many advantages for carrying research results of big projects than journal articles. It is also useful for knowledge management to transfer research results and achievements to the following generation. To improve JAEA technical reports to meet the needs of scientists and engineers and assisting the knowledge management is proposed. (author)
