Measurement of input resources for standardization activities in basic research and applied and development research, and the difference of the measuring results between the research types

This study explores the methods for measuring standardization activities in basic research and applied and development research. Such methods are supposed to enable more sophisticated management of innovation in organizations. This paper focuses on standardization activities relating to intellectual property, because such activities are thought to be strongly linked to innovation. Universities and technology licensing organizations were chosen as examples of basic research institutions. Companies in the electric machinery industry and information and communication industry were selected as examples of the applied and development research institutions. First, the stability of data over multiple years and the validity of the definition of standardization activities are discussed. Then, the difference in measurement results between basic research, and applied and development research is described. A hypothesis is proposed that the ratio of standardization activities in basic research is as high as that in applied and development research.
