Opening the Door for the New Methodology for Optimizing Functional Material Development in Technology Management Framework II

As the chemical companies, functional material development is the cornerstone of sustainable competitiveness. In the technology management perspective, it is quite difficult to understand the present R&D project status within overall process. Therefore, companies struggle to allocate and organize their resources for material development. Dynamic technology management replies this need. In the previous work, various kind of approach to solve this need, however, it was simply difficult to explain the R&D project status as quantitative dynamic model. In this paper, we attempted to be expressed the state of the research and development process by means of quantitative physical model as modified magnetic model. we defined the R&D project as dynamic model and estimated interactions among internal elements within the company. The model can distinguish the success / failure case beyond the function of the time of the project. In addition, the visualization of the result of the model simulation gives feedback of the improvement point from the research and development process status. Our highlight is the optimization strategy for technology management framework and enable a practical feedback of optimizing functional material research and development.
