A portfolio is a coordinated combination of technologies that achieve a common objective for the decision-maker. Thus, the book will focus on those concepts and tools for selecting and modifying a combination of technologies that will be either developed by a technology supply organization, such as a national laboratory or a corporate research center, or adopted by a technology application organization, such as a government administrative office or a corporation management department, to either advance public goals (space exploration or disease eradication) or enhance corporate strategies (improving productivity or increasing competitiveness).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2006-12-18\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780387354460\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-0-387-35448-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x156cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 174\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45378463662220,"sku":"9780387354460","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780387354460.jpg?v=1775004425","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780387354460","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
