Graphing how long it takes for us to make a selection
Now that we are done making selections from proposals submitted in response to ROSES 2007 we can show that on average we have made most decisions more rapidly than in prior years, and that the longest delays were significantly less than in the last few years. This is represented graphically on this page in two ways, in a bar graph which counts the number of program elements, and a waterfall plot which is weighted by number of proposals. This improvement is the direct result of hard work by our program officers.
