The comparisons were conducted in three groups of indices:

• Productivity indices- number of publications per capita at the country or number of publications at the institute.
  
• Index of priority of research in a field.
  
• Quality indices- the citation index.

The countries and institutions were ranked according to these indices. The use of five additional ISI databases, helped us to draw the full picture of the status of Israeli research in the different fields.
The first part is a literature review of the methods which can be used for the evaluating the influence that the engineering/scientific research has on the economy, industry, and society in Israel
The third part focuses on three fields of knowledge: Information and Communications Technologies- ICT, Biotechnology and Aerospace engineering.
