Sažetak
Knowledge visualization can provide a narrative for understanding the dynamics of knowledge dissemination, synthesis and redistribution. The interactions between various knowledge instances is not cumulative, but spawns new knowledge instances. These knowledge instances can then spawn new knowledge instances. This is a process which cannot be controlled, but its dynamics can be understood through visualization. Using visualization, patterns of knowledge asset interactions that can lead to innovation and success, or conflict and failure, can be identified. In today's knowledge economy, organizations that operate in highly competitive market conditions have a need for up-to-date knowledge of emerging technologies. This research attempts to provide insight into a technology fields evolution by analysing how the content of patent claims changes over time. This is achieved by analysing keywords that occur in patent claims and using this data to create topics of interest addressed by patents.
