Tech Mining Patent Analysis Case Illustration: Fuel CellsTech Mining makes exploitation of text databases meaningful to those who can gain from derived knowledge about emerging technologies. It begins with the premise that we have the information, the tools to exploit it, and the need for the resulting knowledge.The information provided puts new capabilities at the hands of technology managers. Using the material present, these managers can identify and access the most valuable technology information resources (publications, patents, etc.); search, retrieve, and clean the information on topics of interest; and lower the costs and enhance the benWiley series in systems engineering and management.Data miningTechnological innovationsEconomic aspectsResearch, IndustrialData mining.Technological innovationsEconomic aspects.Research, Industrial.005.74Porter Alan L1703391Cunningham Scott W1703392MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910811830203321Tech mining4088541UNINA
