Abstract
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. The cross-interrelationship between authors and keywords used the publications were analyzed to highlight the existing social networks of the TRM scholars. The result reveals the areas where the future research collaboration can be initiated as those areas present the possible connections among the authors who tend to use similar keywords in their publications. In this presentation, a brief literature review is provided to capture the concept of bibliomethcs and text mining technique. Next, the presentation discusses how the TRM database was organized for this analysis. Finally, the analysis results are presented along with the discussion about the limitations and the plan for future works. © 2008 PICMET.
