AAAS+NSF SciSIP Workshop: Building a Community of Practice II Washington, DC, October 19, 2010 STICK: Science & Technology Innovation Concept Knowledge-base Ping Wang Ben Shneiderman Yan Qu
Why Do We Develop STICK? Artificial or disciplinary divide between Science and technology Invention and innovation Innovation production/supply and use/demand Over-emphasis on success Lack of tools for analyzing large-scale data So… We develop STICK to capture large-scale, multi- source, multi-field, longitudinal data on successful and failed innovations and to advance visual analytic tools for using such data. 2
Where Do Data Come From? Patents News & trade press ProQuest newspapers USPTO Full-text & image database (PatFT) Lexis-Nexis and application full- Factiva text & image database Scholarly work (AppFT) Web of science Google patents Google scholar Government funding ProQuest dissertations NSF and NIH awards ACM Digital Library Social/informal media Company data Wikipedia Hoovers Techmeme Wharton Research Data Slashdot Services (WRDS) 3
What Is In STICK? Three fields Relationships IT, biotech, & nanotech Among innovations Broader, narrower, Innovations complementary, Concepts competing … Products/services Among actors People/organizations Collaborative, affiliated transactional, Developers/producers competitive … Universities, research Btw innovation & actor labs, vendors Invent, commercialize, Adopters/users invest, adopt … Companies, nonprofits Time of relationship Intermediaries 4
