NOTES
For each Theme I to IV there is a list of Indicators regarding
Greece. We provide also a graph for a selection of Indicators.
There is a direct graphic comparison of Greece with three countries,
namely Ireland, Portugal and Spain, which are in
a relatively similar position with Greece in the Science and
Technology sector. Furthermore, in the same graph the EU-average (or
EU-total) is used as a baseline reference. For further explanations
regarding the indicators please refer to the standard OECD methodology
for the collection of R&D statistics, i.e. the Frascati Manual
[4]. All data are collected from the OECD database (years span from
1981 to 2002).
