This study aims to review and synthesize the rapidly evolving literature on technology transfer from universities, and the concepts and models included in it, from a knowledge-flow approach to find the factors contributing to its performance. This article provides a perspective on recent work, focusing on empirical studies on technology transfer in universities conducted in the last 32 years from a knowledge-based vision. The study was carried out from a systematic literature review in the Scopus, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, and SpringerLink databases on 135 articles selected and evaluated by peers from critical surveillance factors such as technology transfer, knowledge flow, and university–industry relationship, among others. It was possible to identify 75 factors that, from a knowledge-based vision and specifically from a knowledge-flow approach, permit and contribute to the performance of technology transfer generated from research processes in universities. We classified studies into four categories according to their approaches, each with their dimensions and factors: management of knowledge, resources and capabilities, management of technological transfer, and the university–industry relationship. This classification permitted not only identification but also the systematization of the different factors and related authors that, from a knowledge-flow approach, contribute to the performance of technological transfers in universities, reflecting their efficiency and effectiveness. In this respect, absorption capacity and open innovation are topics which are worthy of exploration.
El fortalecimiento de los esquemas de protección de la propiedad intelectual a nivel global es una tendencia que se reafirma con el Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Right – TRIPS establecido en 1994 en el marco de las acciones de la Organización Mundial de Comercio. Desde entonces, la discusión sobre el impacto de este mecanismo en los países en vía de desarrollo está abierta. Este artículo recoge argumentos en pro y contra del beneficio de este acuerdo y en complemento expone planteamientos que intentan una aplicación equilibrada del TRIPS que atienda tanto los intereses de países desarrollados como países en vía de desarrollo, siendo la principal conclusión la consolidación de esquemas flexibles en función de las condiciones específicas de países y de sectores.
Este documento muestra la implementación de una red de sensores inalámbricos para la medición de variables microclimáticas en el Relicto Vegetal Cedro Rosado ubicado dentro de la Universidad del Quindío. La red cuenta con tres nodos sensores que permiten la adquisición de los datos correspondientes a las variables: temperatura, humedad relativa, presión atmosférica, radiación solar, humedad del suelo, velocidad del viento, dirección del viento y precipitación. Los datos adquiridos son procesados y enviados a un Gateway mediante la utilización de una red inalámbrica con protocolo Digimesh usando la banda libre de 900 MHz, los datos son recibidos por un Gateway que está conectado a un computador para su posterior procesamiento en una plataforma tecnológica.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
