This paper propose a systematic approach to setting R&D priorities of emerging technologies in the technology foresight context. The proposed approach consists of two stages with two multiple criteria decision making methods. Firstly, socio-economic cost-benefit analysis based on data...

The strategic importance of performance evaluation of national R&D programs is highlighted as the resource allocation draws more attention in R&D policy agenda. Due to the heterogeneity of national R&D programs' objectives, however, it is intractably difficult to relatively evaluate multiple...

The uncertainty of the business environment has highlighted the strategic gravity of scenario in technology foresight and strategic planning. Fuzzy cognitive map (FCM), among various scenario development approaches, has recently drawn attention due to its relative advantage of combining...

One of the flaws of the journal impact factor (IF) is that it cannot be used to compare journals from different fields or multidisciplinary journals because the IF differs significantly across research fields. This study proposes a new measure of journal performance that captures field-different...

Since previous frameworks and methods for evaluation of national R&D have mainly focused on short-term R&D outputs, long-term R&D outcomes have been neglected so that they have failed to be fully utilized and spread. Thus, it is imperative to mirror long-term R&D outcomes in performance...

type="main" <title type="main">Summary</title> <p>As corporate responsibility for environmental management has gained attention, eco-efficiency has become recognized as an important concept for improving the social performance of the business sector as well as that of the public sector. Improving eco-efficiency is widely...</p>

A technology evaluation model based on the negotiation between a licensor and a licensee is proposed. This model also considered information asymmetry which decreases the probability of technology transfer between the licensor and the licensee. Factors which affect this decrease and sectors...

Information system project failure is described as a common phenomenon. Escalation occurs when there are continued commitments for a troubled project and has been observed as one pattern of failure. The main purpose of this research was to investigate whether software development risks were the...

Based on the notion of the national innovation system (NIS), this paper proposes an exploratory method of measuring inter-industrial knowledge flows. The proposed measures are based on patent analysis and input-output analysis. By employing the Korean case, the knowledge measures are gauged and...
