Call for Papers FUZZ-IEEE Special Session "Fuzzy Logic on Technology Management"

Technology management is one of the emerging academic fields in the world. Fuzzy logic approaches have a significant place in the field of technology and technology management with its highly complex structure. In the literature, many studies are placed such as technology knowledge management, innovation management, technology acquisition, R&D management, technology strategy, technology investment, technology marketing, technology protection, technology models and technology planning. Therefore, fuzzy logic based applications are diverse in technology management processes. Due to technology integrates every steps of human activities and human manages the technology, fuzzy logic based applications contribute the technology management in terms of commercial and technological perspectives.The session of “Fuzzy Logic for Technology and Technology Management” will contribute to today’s needs of academic world. We believe this session will be benefitted by several precious articles.
