The Committee feels that these data form the best estimate now available of government expenditures in support of machine- translation research. Other estimates could be obtained, however, depending on the extent to which one would include or exclude funds for the support of work in related areas of data processing and information technology and the costs of the operation of the Foreign Technology Division mechanical translation facility. Criteria for what constituted support of mechanical translation research were determined by the individual sponsors. 112
