At the same time in researching method, the combination of complex network analysis methods and system simulation methods quantitatively describes the formation and development process of collaborative innovation networks, the evolution of network topology, and the transformation of the role of heterogeneous agents. In addition, the paper focuses on the coupling development of the knowledge elements and network topology structure of the collaborative innovation network at the stage of technology development and the relationship between the degree of openness of collaborative innovation agents and the efficiency of knowledge flow.
