Abstract

The case study by Wolfgang Oest is the result of cooperation between the Innovation Task Group at IIASA and the Institute of Prognosis and Applied Research in Hannover, Federal Republic of Germany. Dr. Oest worked here at IIASA with the Innovation group for two months, during which the conceptual framework and the first draft of his study were completed. The main idea of the study is to prove and elaborate the relative efficiency concept of the Innovation Task Group. We hope that the results of this study will stimulate the empirical studies about the relation of concrete Innovation and Efficiency. The IIASA Innovation Group is hoping that the results of this will not only extend our knowledge about key technologies but will also help us to develop a common technology to assess technologies from the efficiency point of view.
