The value of synergy degree represents the operating condition of Industry-University-Research Institute (IUR) synergetic innovation (SI) composite system, we build up a set of synergy degree evaluation index system and an evaluation model for IURSI based on the principle of order parameter and slaving of synergetics, which divides the synergy process of IURSI complex system into six subsystems...

From view of ambidexterity theory, this paper studied the base, impetus and characteristics for industry-university-institute cooperation entity to achieve ambidexterity crossing boundaries, and discussed the causes and obstacles of ambidexterity ability construction in Industry-University-Institute Cooperation. We found that there should be distinct knowledge process and ambidextrous mode in C...
