new prototypes of machines and technological processes these programmes envisage their large-scale utilization In the national economy together with the supporting measures (department of productive capacities. construction of new and reconstruction of the existing enterprises). Proceeding from the final targets, status of work and composition of measures It Is possible to specify two types of scientific-technological progr~mmes: Target Scientific­ Technological Programmes and Scientific-Technological Programmes for Solving Major Problems. Target Scientific-Technological Programmes are elaborated for a I arge-sca I e Imp I ementat Jon of the most Important achievements of S&T the uti I lzatlon of which ensures Immediately a considerable Increase of production efficiency and quality of products. In this case a scientific problem Is already solved, ways of Its practical material lzatlon are found and tested, and the whole matter consists In a rapid large-sclae utilization of the given scientific Innovation In production. Consequently, the final targets of these programmes are expressed In volume of production and Industrial mastering of new machines. technological processes and materials created within the framework of these programmes. Beginning with the XI I five-year plan several major types of scientific-technological programmes wll I be used In the USSR, namely: -al 1-unlon scientific-technological programmes whose principal targets are Included In five-year and annual plans of. economic and social development; -republ lean (lnter-republ lean) scientific-technological programmes whose principal targets are Included In republican flve-vear and annual economic and social development plans; -branch (lnterbranch) scientific-technological programmes whose targets are Included In plans of the USSR ministries and departments; -scientific-technological programmes of regions and terrltorlel-productlon complexes whose targets are Included tn state and republican five-year and annu&l economfc and social ·development plans and plans of the ministries and departments respectively. It Is necessary to point out that a scientific-technological programme allows to see In their Interrelation alI components 
**Analysis**
This text appears to be discussing the concept of scientific-technological programs and their role in the national economy, specifically in relation to large-scale utilization of machines and technological processes. The text mentions the construction of new and reconstruction of existing enterprises, and the goal of increasing production efficiency and quality of products. This suggests that the main focus is on industrial development and economic growth.
