Report writing correction

Dear Teachers,

I wrote a preface for a study on technology.

I would deeply appreciate it if you could help me fix any grammatical errors or awkward sounding expressions.

Highlighted words and phrases are just "some" of what I think seems a bit unnatural.

Thank you.

The technology road map has been gaining more attention lately as a strategic support tool to predict and adequately react to the shifts in technology in the highly unpredictable future.

However, despite the growing importance of the service sector in the economic structure, existing studies so far have been conducted for the purpose of making predictions on the particular technology and product development of the particular industry, while the studies on technology road map which reflects the service-oriented point of view have been relatively meager.

In the service-oriented industrial structure, the role of technology is to provide a vehicle on which services can be provided, and characteristically values are created through the usage of the product on the part of the user rather than through the product itself.

Therefore, this study will aim at predicting the future advancements of ubiquitous devices and its technology from service-oriented point of view and introducing the standardized and methodical U-city technology road mapping process which will provide support for establishing the development strategies.

In chapter 2, therefore, we will conduct documentary research on both technology roadmap and u-City, and in chapter 3 we will introduce cases where limited technology road mapping process were applied to actual u-City industry. Then finally, we will draw a conclusion and the implication and elaborate on future research projects in chapter 4.
