Organizational innovation favors technological innovation, but does it also influence technological innovation persistence? This article investigates empirically the pattern of technological innovation persistence and tests the potential impact of organizational innovation using firm-level data from three waves of the French Community Innovation Surveys. Evidence shows a positive effect of orga...

In this research is presented a method for technological capabilities assessment in a company in transformer industry. Used and discussed criteria in this technique are merely developed to assess technological capabilities in transformer industry. Based on literature, technological capabilities in transformer industry are divided into three main categories: production capability, development an...

Based on the relevant statistical data of 2008,taking regional technological innovation ability of Changzhutan “3+5” urban agglomeration as a study object , constructing the objective and comprehensive index system of regional technological innovation ability, combining Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) and fuzzy, this paper conducts a comprehensive evaluation of the technological innovation abil...

One of the latest and most controversial areas of science is biotechnology. Genetic engineering concerns with the manipulation of DNA molecules to modify plants, animals and other creatures. Scientists are now able to isolate a gene or genome in an animal or plant to another one, based on the traits they want to transfer. The movement of a gene from a living creature to another one is called th...

As the journal moves into its 10th year of publication, it (really those charged with its editorial well-being) continues to monitor developments in the field of proteomics, including activities in the related fields of genomics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics, with the view of introducing appropriate changes to accommodate them. This includes keeping our clinical and mass spectrometric iden...

Science, technology, and innovation are essential to America’s continued economic growth, and can help achieve a wide range of national and global policy objectives. One currently underutilized tool for stimulating technological innovation is inducement prizes, which encourage efforts by contestants to accomplish a particular goal. A related policy instrument is an Advanced Market Commitment, u...

Innovation in infant disciplines occurs most rapidly and successfully when a large number of small groups proceed independently under the motivation of market opportunity. In a few years, a substantial fraction of the engineering work force will have a working knowledge of LSI design. At the same time, fabrication areas are becoming more and more capital intensive. What is needed is a clean, st...
