From page 89...
... (This study will not consider aeronautics technologies except to the extent that they are needed to achieve NASA and national needs in space; guidance on the development of core aeronautics technologies is already available in the National Aeronautics Research and Development Plan.) The steering committee and panels will prepare two reports, as follows: • The steering committee will establish a set of criteria to enable prioritization of technologies within each and among all of the technology areas that the NASA technology roadmaps should satisfy.

From page 90...
... 90 NASA SPACE TECHNOLOGY ROADMAPS AND PRIORITIES • Each panel will prepare a written summary of the above for the steering committee. • The steering committee will subsequently develop a comprehensive final report that -- Summarizes findings and recommendations for each of the 14 roadmaps, -- Integrates the outputs from the workshops and panels to identify key common threads and issues, and -- Prioritizes, by group, the highest-priority technologies from all 14 roadmaps.
