2008-2009 NACE Rev. 2 ICT datasets. Methodological notes 8 The main source of the 2008-2009 GVA NACE Rev.2 ICT sector database in nominal euros for the EU countries is NA from Eurostat. The NA GVA data has been distributed among ICT (and non ICT) sectors, according to the latest OECD definition (table 1) using GVA or production data (when the first is not available) from the NA and SBS statistics. NA from Eurostat only provides direct GVA information for ICT sector NACE 61 (telecommunications) for all the European countries, except Bulgaria, Luxembourg, Malta and United Kingdom. The majority of GVA sector gaps have been filled with weights of the same sector and the same year in production or with GVA of another year. Greece, Luxembourg and especially Malta lack official data, therefore we recommend taking the results with caution. The missing data not covered with sources mentioned above has been estimated using NACE Rev. 1.1 data, correspondence table between NACE Rev. 1.1 and NACE Rev. 2, European averages ICT shares, and turnover/gva ratio. We obtain GVA dataset in PPS using purchasing power parities coming from Eurostat. 1.2.

2008-2009 NACE Rev. 2 ICT datasets. Methodological notes 16 The elaboration of the 2008-2009 BERD NACE Rev.2 ICT sector database (in nominal euros and euros PPS) for the EU countries has been based on the information provided by Eurostat. The main sources of Business Expenditure R&D data is Statistics on Research and Development (Eurostat). BERD data has been distributed among ICT (and non ICT) sectors, according to the latest OECD definition (table 1) using data provided by country and industry from Eurostat. The majority of BERD sectors gaps have been filled following these steps: a. When a country has data for a year in Statistics on R&D, the same percentage structure for the next year is applied. b. Using Community Innovation Survey to cover the lack of data in some sectors. c. Using data provided by industry (NACE 1.1.) from Eurostat and correspondence table between NACE rev. 2 and NACE Rev 1.1 d. Using the percentage structure of turnover: weight of the sector 465 (Wholesale of information and communication equipment) in sector G (Wholesale and retail trade; repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles; for Finland, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Romania and Sweden); distribution of the sector 26 (Manufacture of computer, electronic and optical products) to 3-digits (for Denmark, Finland, Greece, Latvia, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Romania and Sweden); weight of the sector 631 (Data processing, hosting and related activities; web portals) in sector 63 (Information service activities; for Belgium, Finland, Greece, Ireland, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Spain and Sweden). e. Using the average weight of R&D expenditure in countries with sector 582 data (Software publishing) in sector 58 (Publishing activities; sample 17 countries; weight: 93% in 2008 and 92% in 2009). f. Using the average weight of R&D expenditure in countries with sector 951 data (Repair of computers and communication equipment) in sector S-U (Other service activities; sample 17 countries; weight: 16% in 2008 and 13% in 2009). Greece and Luxembourg lack official data, therefore we recommend taking the results with caution. The missing data has been estimated using some alternative methods like NACE Rev.1.1 data and correspondence table between NACE rev. 2 and NACE Rev 1.1 or percentage structure of turnover. Data by industry for EU-27 is obtained as the sum of the member countries since official data is not available.
2008-2009 NACE Rev. 2 ICT datasets. Methodological notes 17 We obtain BERD dataset in PPS using purchasing power parities coming from Eurostat. 5.2.

The R&D expenditures have been distributed among ICT (and non ICT) sectors, following the comprehensive 2007 OECD ICT sector definition (table 1), using the correspondences tables between JSIC and NACE Rev. 2 (table 2) elaborated by Ivie.
2008-2009 NACE Rev. 2 ICT datasets. Methodological notes 18 In some cases it has been necessary to use additional information to estimate specific ICT subsectors: - Value of production from Annual Manufacturing Census provided by METI has been used to estimate the ICT sectors NACE 261 (Manufacture of electronic components and boards), 262 (Manufacture of computers and peripheral equipment), 263 (Manufacture of communication equipment), 264 (Manufacture of consumer electronics) and 268 (Manufacture of magnetic and optical media) in 2008 and 2009. For the previous years the distribution of R&D expenditures is based on 2008 BERD/GVA relation. - Sales of main activity from Survey on Selected Service Industries provided by METI have been used to estimate ICT sectors NACE 582 (Software publishing), 62 (Computer programming, consultancy and related activities) and 631 (Data processing, hosting and related activities; web portals). Japan dataset does not contain information for the ICT trade sector and one ICT services sector: 951 (Repair of computers and communication equipment). In addition, ICT sector 62 (Computer programming, consultancy and related activities) includes ICT sector 582 (Software publishing). We obtain BERD in euros and PPS using exchange rates and purchasing power parities coming from OECD and Eurostat. 5.3.

2008-2009 NACE Rev. 2 ICT datasets. Methodological notes 19 http://appsso.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/nui/show.do?dataset=nama_aux_cra&lang=en (Purchasing power parities) Exchange rates and PPP from OECD http://stats.oecd.org/index.aspx?datasetcode=sna_table4 (PPPs and exchange rates: national currency per US dollar) The elaboration of the ICT sector database for the United States has been based mainly on the information provided by National Science Foundation and United States Census Bureau, since OECD has not published any NACE Rev. 2 data yet. The R&D expenditures have been distributed among ICT (and non ICT) sectors, following the comprehensive 2007 OECD ICT sector definition (table 1), using correspondence tables between NAICS and NACE Rev. 2 (table 3) elaborated by Ivie. 2008 BRDIS data have greater industrial disaggregation. Because of that, when it was necessary, 2008 structure has been used to distribute R&D expenditures in other years among certain ICT sectors. United States dataset does not contain information for the ICT trade sector and one ICT services sector: 951 (Repair of computers and communication equipment). We obtain BERD in euros and PPS using exchange rates and purchasing power parities coming from OECD and Eurostat. 6. ICT Personnel and Researchers on R&D 6.1. EU-27 Statistics on Research and Development (SRD) from Eurostat: http://appsso.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/nui/show.do?dataset=rd_p_bempoccr2&lang=en Downloaded: 14-03-2012 (R&D personnel at national and regional level. Total R&D personnel and researchers in business sector by economic activity and sex (NACE Rev. 2)) Labour Force Survey (LFS) from Eurostat: Specific request to 3-digits Downloaded: 03-04-2012 (Employment by economic activity and highest level of education attained (NACE Rev. 2))
2008-2009 NACE Rev. 2 ICT datasets. Methodological notes 20 The elaboration of the 2008-2009 R&D Personnel NACE Rev.2 ICT sector database (in full time equivalent and head count) and R&D Researchers ICT sector database (in full time equivalent) for the EU countries has been based on the information provided by Eurostat. The main sources of R&D Personnel and Researchers data are Statistics on Research and Development (Eurostat). This data has been distributed among ICT (and non ICT) sectors, according to the latest OECD definition (table 1) using data provided by country and industry from Eurostat. The majority of sectors gaps have been filled following these steps: a. When a country has data for a year in Statistics on R&D, the same percentage structure for the next year is applied. b. Using data provided by industry (NACE 1.1.) from Eurostat and correspondence table between NACE rev. 2 and NACE Rev 1.1 c. Using the percentage structure of Highly Qualified Employment (Labour Force Statistics from Eurostat): weight of the sector 465 (Wholesale of information and communication equipment) in sector G (Wholesale and retail trade; repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles; for Finland, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Romania and Sweden); distribution of the sector 26 (Manufacture of computer, electronic and optical products) to 3-digits (for Denmark, Finland, Greece, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands and Sweden); weight of the sector 631 (Data processing, hosting and related activities; web portals) in sector 63 (Information service activities; for Bulgaria, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Romania and Sweden). d. Using the average weight of R&D personnel and researchers in countries with data of the sector 582 (Software publishing) in sector 58 (Publishing activities; sample 18 countries; weight: 91% in 2008 and 2009). e. Using the average weight of R&D personnel and researchers in countries with data of the sector 951 (Repair of computers and communication equipment) in sector S-U (Other service activities; sample 15 countries; weight: 17% in 2008 and 14% in 2009). Greece and Luxembourg lack official data, therefore we recommend taking the results with caution. The missing data has been estimated using some alternative methods like NACE Rev.1.1 data and correspondence table between NACE rev. 2 and NACE Rev 1.1 or percentage structure of Highly Qualified.
2008-2009 NACE Rev. 2 ICT datasets. Methodological notes 21 Data by industry for EU-27 is obtained as the sum of the member countries since official data is not available. 7. ICT BERD intensity : see sources in 5. ICT BERD and 1. ICT GVA : Business Expenditure in R&D intensity (BERD/GVA) dataset is provided in percentages. See comments in 5. ICT BERD and 1. ICT GVA.
