Synergy Degree Evaluation Model for Synergetic Innovation of Industry-University-Research Institute

The value of synergy degree represents the operating condition of Industry-University-Research Institute (IUR) synergetic innovation (SI) composite system, we build up a set of synergy degree evaluation index system and an evaluation model for IURSI based on the principle of order parameter and slaving of synergetics, which divides the synergy process of IURSI complex system into six subsystems including: subject synergy, process synergy, element synergy, mechanism synergy, institution synergy and synergy effect, process of IURSI is just the synergetic process of these six subsystems. The validity for this model is tested through analysis of the current situation of a specific “WSC-IURSI composite system”.
