Whitson Information Sources The citations presented in Energy Research Abstracts are a subset of the worldwide energy information provided to the Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI) through exchange agreements with foreign sources and through exchanges or contracts with U.S. organizations. The Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDE) The International Nuclear Information System was established by the International Energy Agency to (INIS) was established to promote the exchange of promote cooperation among members in conducting information on nuclear science and technology. Its op- appropriate energy-related research and development eration is similar to that of the ETDE, with the INIS programs through the development of a formal central Secretariat being located in Vienna, Austria.
