Abstract

A resource-allocation behavior model for the national major projects has been proposed based on canonical correlation analysis method. By taking the projects from two fields-energy and environmental supported by the database of the Olympic science and technology (2008) action plan as example, allocation behavior has been measured and explored according to marginal elasticity between input and output of projects resources derived from the knowledge production function. Results show that the marginal elasticity of human resources in the input indexes is better than that of R&D resource and development time, the report marginal elasticity in the output indexes is negative, and the marginal elasticity of three original input indexes to the papers in output indexes are better than that of other indexes in China. The corresponding suggestions include that (1) a prompt and effective coordination mechanism should be established by the government to link the supply and demand of science and technology; (2) the international academic exchanges and cooperation should be attached great importance; and (3) the incentive mechanism should be set up to inspire researchers produce high standard and quality research papers.
