NOTES: Before 1998 companies classified in Standard Industrial
Classification (SIC) industries 737 (computer and data processing
services) and 871 (engineering, architectural, and surveying
services). After 1998 companies classified in North American
Industry Classification System (NAICS) industries 5112 (software)
and 5415 (computer systems design and related services). With SIC
classification, information technology services share of companyfunded
R&D was 10.4% for 1998, indicating SIC-based data may
overestimate information technology services R&D and net sales
relative to NAICS-based data.
