Predicting treeform should be very important, eventhough it is difficult, step for landscape designers. This study was carried out to develop a method to classify the treeforms of landscape plants by numerical data. Twenty five treeforms are selected to be compared with 41 Zelkova serrata MAKINO, 26 Pinus strobus L., and 44 Magnolia denudata DESROUX. Statistical judgement was made by using X$^2$-Test. The results are summerized as follows. 1. Zelkova serrata was classified as B3 or C3. This species showed a tendency of changing from A type to B or C type, and the CL/CH ratio(canopy length/canopy height) is thought to be increased as aged. 2. pinus strobus was classified as D4-D5 and the CL/CH ratio tends to be increased as aged. 3. Magnolia denudata was classified as D4 and the change by aging was not observed clearly.

Technology assessment is one of the most challenging decision making areas that companies face nowadays. According to increase the importance of technology selection, it has been a main issue for the decision makers whether an appropriate technology selection will be successful or not. Therefore, in this study, a technology assessment model using BSC and ANP method was proposed. The technology assessment model consist of three phase. In first phase, various factors, that have an influence on technology assessment, were taken into consideration. Based on the extracted BSC process, the strategies and critical success factors and performance measures were extracted for selecting the technology. And in second phase, the ANP method used to integrate opinions of experts' and evaluate technology alternatives controls tangible and intangible criteria, allows for more complex inter-relationship among decision levels and deals with ambiguity involved in the assessment process. In the lase phase, according to the result of before phase, decision makers select the appropriate technology. Furthermore, the proposed model was applied in the public service for validating the feasibility of the assessment model. The criteria and proposed performance measures informs the method and focus areas for developing the technology. Furthermore, the assessment model can be applied to the other area, and give the objectivity and rationality.
