Studying technology roadmapping development and selecting the appropriate model for aircraft design and manufacturing industry

Roadmap is a foresight tool, and its goal and application is for decreasing the risk of investment. It is importantespecially in macro and long term investments. On the other hand, the extent and complexity of aircraft design andmanufacturing industry cause the need for roadmapping. Roadmapping requires an appropriate model, and then inthis research by using Modified Digital Logic (MDL) and expert’s viewpoints, the appropriate roadmap model fordeveloping aircraft design and manufacturing industry is presented. Results show the appropriate approach, framework and method, are respectively, Combinational, Multiple Layers and T-Plan.
