Abstract

This study employs system dynamics simulation to examine the scenarios and policies aimed at enhancing the intellectual capital of R&D centres. Through an in‐depth review of the relevant literature, such as thematic analysis, along with an examination of regulations and expert interviews and focus group discussions as well, the dimensions, variables and measurement indicators associated with Intellectual Capital and Business Intelligence, were identified. The dynamic relationships among these variables are then modelled, and the model's behaviour is simulated. By implementing two scenarios, namely reducing government financial support and increasing the competitive environment, the simulation results indicate that the enhancement of informational and relational capital will improve structural capital and increase business intelligence. Over ten years of simulation, the centre's dedicated revenue will grow by more than 150%. The proposed dynamic modelling and system behaviour simulation can serve as a basis for setting an intellectual capital framework in R&D centres, particularly in developing countries.

利用商业智能提升研发中心的智力资本：系统动力学方法

本研究采用系统动力学模拟来研究旨在增强研发中心智力资本的方案和政策。通过对专题分析等相关文献的深入研究，以及对法规、专家访谈和焦点小组讨论的研究，确定了与智力资本和商业智能相关的维度、变量和衡量指标。然后对这些变量之间的动态关系进行建模，并对模型的行为进行模拟。通过实施两种方案，即减少政府财政支持和增加竞争环境，模拟结果表明，信息资本和关系资本的增强将改善结构资本并提高商业智能。在十年的模拟过程中，该中心的专项收入将增长 150% 以上。拟议的动态建模和系统行为模拟可作为研发中心（尤其是发展中国家的研发中心）制定知识资本框架的基础。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
