Brings together an international range of expertise. Designed to
facilitate the development of management frameworks adaptable for a
wide range of organizations, as well as an overview of the
development and integration of technology in advanced and emerging
economies. Essential comprehensive source of new and emerging

This volume explores emerging models, methods and tools in the
management of research and development (R&D) in the knowledge
era, with a particular focus on the challenges of the emerging
technologies. The contributions are organized in five parts. Part
I, Managing Emerging Technologies, provides methods and tools to
understand the challenges created by the emergence of new
technologies. Part II, Technology and Engineering Management Tools
and Policies, explores different technology and engineering tools,
including topics such as product concept development, design,
selection and adoption, using technology roadmaps and
bibliometrics. Part III, Technological Innovation and
Entrepreneurship, explores R&D, knowledge transfer and
entrepreneurial education. Part IV, Commercialization of
Technological Innovations, explores the development and application
of the technology transfer process which allows managers to succeed
in commercializing the outcomes of R&D projects. Part V,
Managing the Engineering Enterprise, explores the effect economic
decision-making, leadership styles, change management and quality
management have on an organization's ability to plan and execute
initiatives and projects. Research and Development has always
played a critical role in the engineering and technology focused
industries. In an era of big data and smart applications, knowledge
has become a key enabler for R&D. Managing R&D in the
knowledge era requires use of key tools and methods. However,
emerging technologies pose many challenges and cause uncertainties
or discontinuities, which make the task of managing R&D even
more difficult. This book will examine these challenges and provide
tools and methods to overcome them. Exploring such industries as
automotive, healthcare, business intelligence, energy and home
appliances, this book is a valuable resource for academics,
scholars, professionals and leaders in innovation, R&D,
technology, and engineering management.
