“…Visual style (Kerr and Phaal, 2015) typically reflects an internal structure through a layered chart of a directed graph. Gradini et al (2019) and Knoll et al (2018) present a different view in their MB-TRM framework. They define an architecture of separate roadmap elements (e.g., systems) that must be instantiated, parameterized, and linked to other elements (e.g., technologies) during collaborative design sessions.…”

“…Most of the propositions came from the realm of computational linguistics and related to the automated analysis of large textual databases, such as research papers and patents (Kostoff and Schaller, 2001). Knoll et al (2018) consider the roadmapping problem from a systems engineering perspective. Indeed, a large number of roadmap elements and relationships between them provide grounds to perceive a roadmap as a system.…”

“…Indeed, a large number of roadmap elements and relationships between them provide grounds to perceive a roadmap as a system. Following the model-based paradigm in engineering design, Knoll et al (2018) have proposed the notion of model-based technology roadmapping (MB-TRM). The distinct feature of this MB-TRM is that it uses executable conceptual design models as building blocks of a roadmap.…”

“…Besides, it allows us to define data processing functions within the scope of a digital roadmap that would perform operations useful for decision-makers (e.g., summarizing, verifying, assessing, extrapolating). This MB-TRM was initially proposed for a specific organizational context -a large international corporation that produces complex technical systems and systems-of-systems (Knoll et al, 2018), and no general model for MB-TRM seems to exist. Such a generalized MB-TRM could be applied to all types of contexts -from a startup to a space agency.…”

Recent contributions in the field of technology roadmapping often aim to apply various numerical models and tools to facilitate the roadmapping process and enrich its outcomes. This trend resulted in the emergence of socalled model-based technology roadmapping. We consider it as the future development of the traditional documentbased paradigm. One of the general approaches to support the model-based roadmapping is to develop a roadmap's metamodel that would define it independently from the application context and link it to the existing roadmapping literature. In this paper, we attempt to create such a metamodel by generalizing and formalizing existing documentbased roadmaps. We validate our metamodel via reproducing three very different roadmaps from the literature, not included in the set of roadmaps from which the metamodel was created.This paper proposes such a general model for MB-TRM, which can be used to model domain-specific roadmaps. We call such a general model a metamodel. According to Mellor (2004): "A metamodel is a model of a modeling language. It defines the structure, semantics, and constraints for a family of models." A

“…The existing engineering design literature is primarily focused on how technologies, for example, in the form of working principles can be used in a new product (Pahl, Beitz, Feldhusen, & Grote, 2007). Furthermore, the literature deals with how technologies can be integrated into the architecture of an existing product (Smaling & de Weck, 2007;Suh, Furst, Mihalyov, & de Weck, 2010), the maturity of technologies (Fragola, Morse, Putney, & Diapice, 2010;Mankins, 1995;Sauser, Verma, Ramirez-Marquez, & Gove, 2006), and predicting the future performance of technologies in order to identify promising system architectures (Knoll, Golkar, & de Weck, 2018). No specific distinction between types of technologies is presented, except for its maturity (Technology Readiness Levels) and whether or not fundamentally different working principles are used (creative design vs. routine design).…”

Breakthrough technologies introduce a radically new capability or a drastic performance improvement. However, the existing engineering design literature does not specifically pay attention to them. In this paper, we present a conceptual framework for breakthrough technologies, aiming for a more detailed characterization of breakthrough technologies. First, based on a literature survey, we reflect on the relationship between breakthrough technology and innovation. In addition, we explore the relationship between breakthrough technologies at the component and system level. Next, we propose a conceptual framework with dimensions in which breakthroughs may occur and the corresponding expansion of concepts and knowledge, drawing from C-K theory. We subsequently apply the framework to the case of a laser sail-propelled interstellar probe. We conclude that the relationship between component and system-level breakthrough technologies requires further exploration. Furthermore, the coupling between the breakthrough technology and market breakthrough in the form of a new business model seems interesting for future work.

Technology roadmapping is an important yet challenging strategic process involving inter‐disciplinary knowledge and requiring key decision‐makers participation. To improve and facilitate this activity, a concept of model‐based technology roadmapping has been proposed in the literature as an application of model‐based systems engineering practices to the strategic planning domain. At the same time, many modern complex technical systems are required to be not only functional, efficient, and reliable, but also useful, usable, and desirable, which shifts the focus of planning to the user experience (UX). In this paper, we developed a Domain‐specific language that uniformly represents key concepts related to the four levels essential for strategic planning in the user‐oriented business context: market, UX design, engineering design, and technology. A collaborative interactive software was developed to support the proposed methodology. As a case study, a sustainable transformation of the automotive sector was tested and implemented in the software.
