Abstract:

Technology roadmapping is a tool for technology planning which has been caused more and more attention in both academic and industrial fields. In this paper, firstly, we summarize the technical problems emerging within technology roadmapping. Then, we demonstrate a methodology based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to address the decision making problems in evaluating technology alternatives in technology roadmap. Finally, we present a process which is easily implemental approach to technology roadmapping.

Keywords: Technology roadmapping, AHP, group decision making
