Mapping the knowledge evolution and network of technology roadmapping (TRM)

As the concept of technology roadmapping (TRM) continues to gain more acceptances from practitioners, many researches are undertaking to improve the visualization of a roadmap as well as to operationalize the process so that a roadmap can be effectively kept alive. This presentation presents the evolution and the current profile of the body of knowledge in the technology roadmapping (TRM) field. Text-mining technique was applied to analyze journal and conference publications related to TRM subjects which are listed in the electronic databases of Web of Science and IEEE Explore.
