CMMU Faculty's Latest International Journal Publication on Technology Intelligence and Planning

Asst. Prof. Dr. Nathasit Gerdsri participated with the research team at Dept. of Engineering and Technology Management, Portland State U. (USA) to enhance the work on the development and use of technology intelligence. The work results have been recently published in: Inderscience’s Journal of International Journal of Technology Intelligence and Planning  [Issue 5(4) pp.341-356] under the title of “Research and development progress assessment through technological and scientific intelligence”

This paper presents the critical for Research and Development (R&D)-driven organisations to have access to intelligence on the progress of the research in universities and public or private laboratories as well as on the status of their competitors. This paper introduces three concepts: time lag between different scientific indicators, visual correlation between scientific indicators and actual technology performance and finally an activity metric for assessment of competition between an existing and an emerging technology. The results indicate that the introduced concepts, which are based on the bibliometric and patent analysis approaches, allow researchers to generate intelligence on emerging technologies and innovations supported by the wealth of today's public electronic information database. This paper along the other ones that Dr. Gerdsri and his research team published earlier confirmed that CMMU actively engage the international research community in the areas of technology management.
