Tech 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 benefits of competitive technological intelligence
operations.
