        abstract = {This paper examines the role research and development (R\&D) plays in technology progress for a sample of OECD and Asian economies from 1980 to 1995. An empirical model is estimated which relates total factor productivity to domestic and foreign R\&D activity, trade, and information technology and telecommunications (ITT). Model estimates
confirm a positive relationship between national productivity and R\&D activity exists in the long run. Further, the benefits of R\&D can spillover countries through trade, in particular, trade in ITT equipment.},
