This paper describes an experiment which attempted to subjectively measure the transfer of technology directly from the research arena to operational application. Areas of technology included recently developed computer software 'natural languages' based on artificial intelligence (AI) concepts, computer networking technology and automatic message handling systems. Exposure to this technology was accomplished over a 12 week period where the experimental group was provided with the tools and understanding to use ...
This study provides a review of the elements considered sufficient to build and operationalize a decision support system (DSS) designed to assist managers at various organization levels with their decision making requirements. It categorizes capabilities of various decision aids and correlates these capabilities with the characteristics of specific organizational variables in order to examine the context in which DSS's operate. The concept of the three-dimensional contingency matrix is used as ...
Technology transfer is the process by which technology originating at one institutional setting is adapted for use in another. A major impediment to the implementation of new technologies to assist with managerial decision making problems is a lack of communication between the technology and mangement communities. Development of a tool designed to bridge the technology transfer gap is the goal of this research. The result will be a prototype software ...
