Studies on Technological Innovation in the Perspective of Theory of Process

According to the theory of process,the realization of technological intention and the transformation of technological forms are both a process.As a whole,technological activities involve invention and innovation.One cannot understand thoroughly the technological process until he penetrates into the technological innovation and reveals what role it plays in technological process.By virtue of the theory of process,technological innovation is considered as a process of socialization,industrialization and/or merchandization to transform sci-tech achievements into actual productivity,thus forming a new paradigm for studying technological innovation studies and providing a methodological foundation on which the innovation will be studied in a different way.Then,a series of research topics,such as the essence,subjects,pattern,historical stages of technological innovation and the relationship among the innovations of technology,management and knowledge have further been progressed to deepen the study on the philosophy of technological innovation at different levels.
