In addition to existing approaches for Technology Forecasting, the use of data envelopment analysis (DEA) provides valuable insights and prediction data. DEA offers a method to evaluate the relative efficiency of analyzed entities. Using the efficiency analysis features of DEA in Technology Forecasting enables predictions for future developments based on historic data. This paper introduces the Computer Assisted Technology Intelligence (CaTI) system. CaTI implements the Technology Forecasting using DEA method by Oliver Inman, while modifying and expanding the method with the dynamization of the technological Rate of Change calculation using regression analysis, neural network and system Dynamics. CaTI is an interactive system that processes data from a variety of sources and provides a comprehensive set of calculation methods. The results of the calculations are graphically provided to the forecaster. CaTI implements new approaches to the use of Network Data Envelopment Analysis in Technology forecasting to examine the efficient interdependency of subcomponents of a technology. The system supports new functionalities such as collaboration of several forecasters in different locations. The paper describes the individual calculation modules that make up CaTI, their interaction and implementation as software system.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"61 11","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114047559","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As high risks and costs can be shared and complementary core competencies can be combined, innovation networks gain importance. Since little is known about these networks, we address the following research question: What are the structural and strategic characteristics of innovation networks regarding the different powertrain technologies? Based on our PICMET 2016 Conference paper, our study contributes to the scientific discussion on patent and network analyses in different ways: (1) We show an elaborate search strategy using IPC classes and keywords in order to generate a valid patent dataset for the four major powertrain technologies: BEV, FCEV, HEV, and ICEV. The dataset consists of 3,140 bilateral connections between OEMs, suppliers and companies from other industries for the years 1990–2013. (2) We apply a rigorous methodological approach within a two-stage network analysis using a multitude of network measures. Within this analysis, we assess both the macro-perspective of the four technologies' networks (stage 1) and the micro-perspective of central and important companies within each network (stage 2). By differentiating the network structures, we highlight different approaches used by the companies and thereby extend the understanding of cooperation within the automotive supply chain. On the macro-level, the main results show significant structural differences between the analyzed networks. On the micro-level of company activities, we find strong vertical, horizontal and lateral cooperation. Furthermore, we identify the central network positions of key players.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"137 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122916828","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is implicitly assumed that the knowledge can be translated into business values for growing this ecosystem. However some opponents argue that local knowledge creation may not necessarily contribute to the prosperity of business ecosystem especially in latecomers due to the weak links between science and industries. This paper, therefore, proposes a framework to compare the emerging innovation ecosystems between the developed countries and emerging economies. China and the UK are selected as the two exemplar ecosystems for the comparative studies, as the former is representative for leading-edge basic research, and the latter one is renowned for fast catching-up in both science and industrial competence. This study finds that China's 3D printing may have a unique edge in S&T knowledge ecosystem, but may be inherently flawed when local universities play too much roles in the emergence of innovation ecosystem; by contrast, the UK has better settings for the growth of keystone firms for business platforms. This study will contribute to the innovation ecosystem literature, and will be of interest to 3D printing and emerging industry researchers.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127874547","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditionally termed Technology Roadmapping (TRM) the approach is used as a management tool for planning, forecasting and administration. More recently firms apply the technique with a more general mindset to formulate business strategies for innovation that can address such disruptive changes. As part of their business strategy and to survive the intense competitive market environment an organization also needs to have an appropriate business model in place. However, to incorporate constantly changing market dynamics an organization needs to evolve and change their business model. This paper introduces a structured approach to business model innovation roadmapping that defines the transition path from a current to a desired business model. The purpose of the paper is to describe the process of developing a business model innovation roadmap and identify what structure (layers, components & time horizon) should be incorporated. The business model innovation roadmapping approach is proposed to serve an organization as a forecasting and planning tool that can identify potential gaps and also to recognize and act on events that require a change of direction in the actual (customer) value proposition.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"97 12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127996212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
