Telecom and Informatics 3 Gap Analysis activities Research Gap A research gap is a fundamental absence of knowledge. Technology Gap A technology gap is an absence of technology or the integration of technologies. Research results are available (i.e. from IST projects), but has not yet been manifested in products. Standards Gap A standards gap is the absence of Standard components, concepts/infrastructure, process, …

Telecom and Informatics 4 Roadmapping Whilst gap analysis identifies missing research, technology, and standards, the process of creating a roadmap is concerned with actions to close the gap. Generally, this process of creating a roadmap is called roadmapping. Roadmapping was originally developed to help organizations anticipate and clarify resource and performance requirements and to plan and systematically manage and integrate complex projects. Currently roadmapping is used within organizations to facilitate technology planning and communication.
