Abstract | The work is a methodologidtl framework for public involvement in the process of technological assessment. The objective of this study is to apply the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) for assessing the strength of University-Industry-GRI cooperation by measuring the magnitude of different types of factor flows and the relative importance of the linkages. The model for assessment is developed on AHP taking care of major actors and factors with the linkage alternatives of University-lndustry-GRI cooperation. In dealing with such problem, five steps are developed. The first step is problem conceptualization, consisting of the identification of critical techno-economic assessment criteria, including flows of technological factors, linkage factors, and linkage types. The next step is model formulation, including factor, criterion and alternative definitions to develop a tentative AHP model. The third step mainly concerns data collection coming from various actors through structured pairwise comparison questionnaire via individual opinions and group opinions. The next step employs the geometric mean method to make a consensus from group opinions on the importance ratio of criteria and alternatives. Processing of the responses is conducted using the AHP based software called Expert Choice. The last one conducts to model validation and result interpretation. The approach of involving public and controversy management is new in the area of assessment on technological cooperation. The results of the study show that the most preferred linkage is University-Industty cooperation. The study also indicates that government people is the most different group from others. |
