Abstract: The process of technology innovation could be regarded as the collaborative development deprived from interactions among kinds of technique memes and the human intelligence. So how to find the technique meme to study the technology evolution, basic unit of knowledge innovation, has been the focus in the S&T management at home and abroad. Under these circumstances, the paper analyzed the basic function and application of technique meme, and then studied their derivatives, such as technology individual, technology population and technology community. Furthermore, we took the product manual as the reflection of technology and knowledge unit extracted from product specification as the representation of technique meme to discuss the technology evolution in the field of mobile phone, in order to reveal the structure detail from the perspective of technology individual and technology population. At last, we found that the filed could be seen as the knowledge ecosystem with knowledge unit as node and knowledge interaction between two nodes as link.

Key words: technique meme, knowledge unit, technology evolution, technology innovation, product manual, knowledge ecosystem, mobile phone

摘要： 技术创新过程可以看作是技术縻母和人们的智慧相互作用并协同发展，这些相互作用导致技术的进化。如何找到类似于“基因”功能表征技术创新的基本单位技术縻母就成为当前国内外科研管理人员重点要解决的问题。为此，本文首先分析探讨了技术縻母的基本功能、作用以及以技术縻母为基础的技术个体、技术种群和技术群落。之后，利用产品说明书作为技术的体现，以说明书中抽取出的知识元表征技术縻母，进而应用于智能手机领域的技术进化分析，剖解了智能手机领域在技术个体、技术縻母等角度的技术结构，最终发现智能手机领域可以被看作为以知识元为节点以知识元间相互关联为连线的知识生态系统。
