Abstract

The National Science Foundation has been developing a cutting-edge online communications portal, called FastLane, for several years. It is based on more than a decade of research into the use of electronic communications that positioned NSF to rapidly exploit the possibilities of the World Wide Web. Formally less than six years old, FastLane is quickly becoming the preferred way to submit reviews and proposals. For some programs it is the only way and, I dare say, the FastLane site may represent the future of secure transmittal of sensitive scientific material.
