Definition of Converging Technology
Definition by the General Policy for Development of National Converging Technologies(’07)
Convergence of
high-end technologies
high-end technologies
A field which has the possibility of
realizing new technology by
chemically Converging
new technology such as
IT, BT and NT
Overcoming limitations
of science & technology
of science & technology
A field which can possibly
overcome the current limitations of
science & technology through
convergence of heterogeneous
technologies
New market creation
A field which can possibly lead us
to secure a first-mover position
in the marketing medium
and long term
Definition in the Master plan for Development of Converging Technologies(’09~’13)
The technology leading future economy, society and culture by creating new value through synergistic convergence between new technologies, existing industry and academics.
Type 1
Convergence of new technology and existing academics (liberal arts, art/culture, etc.)
ex) Converged contents and knowledge service technology, research on brain and cognitive science
Type 2
Convergence between new technologies
ex) nano-bio material->Nano-Bio materials, IT nanotechnology
Type 3
Convergence of new technology and existing industry
ex) intelligent automotive technology, urban high-tech industrial complex construction technology
Definition of Convergence by the Center
Definition slightly revised from other previous studies- · The technology which can overcome limitations of existing academics and technology, and induce such synergistic convergence as creation of new fields academics / technology, new concepts or paradigms by combining academics and technology of different fields, or big science / technology driven by combination of material / human resources, systems and infrastructure at the nation level
ex)Ultra Large Scale
Integratedsemiconguctors
- 1. Heterogeneity of main factor technologies
- 2. Overcoming limitaions
ex)Technology utillizing big data
- 1. Heterogeneity of main factor technologies
- 2. Synergetic convergence
ex)Space development, high-techweapon development
- 1. Heterogeneity of main for technologies
- 2. Big science
