Technological adaption and innovative activities foster small and medium enterprises (SMEs) growth, especially women-owned SMEs in Pakistan, However, the impact of technological adaption and innovative activities on SMEs growth in the context of Pakistan has been examined by very researchers. This study aims to identify the effect of technology and open innovation policies on the growth of women-owned SMEs and the present trends and management challenges for successful full implementation of open innovation. The study considered a sample of 693 women enterprises located in different cities in Pakistan. Open innovation is measured through eight innovative practices, reflecting the exploration and exploitation of technology in SMEs. Study findings revealed that women enterprises were involved in several open innovation policies during the last five years. Moreover, the study indicated no significant differences between manufacturing and service SMEs regarding open innovation practices; however, women enterprises are more impressively engaged in open innovation practices. Findings also reveal that women-owned SMEs follow open innovation, mainly for market-related intentions, to compete with competitors and meet customers' demands. Thus, it is suggested that government policy relating to thriving SMEs owned by women should be innovation-oriented. The study contributes to the theoretical and practical implications. Further, the study is helpful for SMEs, researchers, practitioners, and decision-makers.

This paper is to analyze the current status and interdependence of knowledge regarding innovation related research in Korea, based on the four academic journals such as Journal of Korea Technology Innovation Society, Journal of Technology Innovation, The Korean Venture Management Review, and Research Policy. The major contributions of this research are as follows: First, we tried to see the general picture of the innovation research community by extending the boundary of analysis, not limiting to a specific journal. Second, instead of subjective and qualitative analysis relying on an expert review, we quantitatively analyzed various basic statistics on innovation area and confirmed that there exist differences for using key words across the journals. Third, we derived a set of influential papers in terms of the authoritative and hub indexes employing link analysis techniques. Finally we provided some recommendations for facilitating knowledge creation activities of academic journals in this area.

This paper explores the relationships between technological acquisition strategies of small firms and innovation in the Korean Electronics industry. Its thesis is that small firms' technology strategies and their effects on the rate of innovation differ according to the new and traditional technology settings. A primary finding of this study is that in-house R & D and technical linkages with buyers and suppliers have stronger effects on the radical innovation in the new technology setting rather than in the traditional technology setting. The findings of the study provides insight for interpreting inconsistent results of recent research for the importance of external linkages to innovation. They also suggest some implications of small firms' strategies and public policies for accelerating technological innovation.

Disruptive innovation means the innovation which obsoletes the existing technology by a new technology. Like the examples of disruptive innovation, film camera and digital camera and PC and laptop, CAE technology can be regarded as a disruptive technology which can raise the disruptive innovation. CAE technology which is being improved dramatically with the development of the related technologies brings the innovation in the design and validation process in manufacturing industry. This innovation can change the rule of the market so that the researchers, companies and CAE enginnees should pay attention to it. Also not only the improvement of the technology but also the training and cultivation of the engineers who can utilize CAE technology are very important and cannot be neglected.

The MMIC (Microwave Monolithic Integrated Circuit) self oscillating double conversion mixer was designed and fabricated for the V-band transmitter applications. The MMIC self oscillating double conversion mixer which dose not need external local oscillator was designed using GaAs PHEMT technology. The first self oscillating mixer use PHEMT technology. The first self oscillating mixer use PHEMT for $f_{LO}$ signal generation and $f_{IF}$ signal is applied at gate port and $f_{RF1}$ signal is generated at a drain port of first stage. The second gate mixer use PHEMT for $f_{LO}$ signal and $f_{RF1}$ signal is applied at gate port and $f_{RF2}$ signal is output at a drain port of second stage.

The purpose of this article is to reinterpret the existing innovation policy with 'the societal innovation policy' framework. It is looking into characteristics of societal innovation policy and the prospects for socio-technical systems transition and citizen participation are discussed. After the discussion, new interpretation of innovation policy elements will be dealt with lenses of societal innovation policy. It sheds new light on the key elements of innovation policy, such as Innovation policy governance, industrial innovation policy, regional innovation policy, and infrastructure policy and suggests direction of policy improvements from societal innovation policy perspectives. This will be an opportunity to reinterpret the existing innovation policy measures and to approach to science technology innovation policy for system transition with participatory perspective.

Examining the relation between market structure and the value of innovation is important for competition and STI policy. If the value is large in a specific industry structure, government may lead the industry to take that form to enhance innovation. Our simple calibration in the case of linear demand and constant MC results in the conclusion that the incentive for R&D in the case of major and minor innovation in Cournot competition is less than that of merger and cooperative R&D. This emphasizes again "necessary evil" as a monopoly for innovation.

As technological capabilities have enhanced, the patterns of innovation activities of latecomer firms changed to post catch-up mode. The purpose of this research is to analyze the post catch-up innovation patterns of technology-intensive small and medium firms of Korea. The innovation patterns can be divided into three types: the technology deepening innovation type, the new technology based innovation type and the architectural innovation type. The characteristics of the technology deepening innovation type are cumulative technological learning and the integration of new generic technology and existing technologies. The characteristics of new technology based type are the acquisition and revelations of new basic knowledges from former incubating organizations such as large firms and universities. The characteristics of the architectural innovation type are the learning of system architecture knowledge from former organization and interactive learning with user firms. These post catch up innovations also have some general characteristics. They effectively exploited the windows of opportunities which are opened in the middle of technological paradigm change.

In this paper, we suggest energy technologies for a plan of future energy technology innovation. In order to evaluate and analyze of the technologies, we consider various methods such as AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process), CVM (Contingent Valuation Method) and MAUT(Multi-Attribute Utility Theory). According to MAUT, we present between many attributes and priorities of innovation technologies.
