Existing studies recognize, definite and measure technology changes, as well as the impacts on the economy, mostly concentrating on the results, rather than consider the structure effects and the dynamic process of the change. In particular, the quantitative study on techs structure is still lacked, which methods could doubtlessly help understand techs changes and effects. Virtually, techs changes, in theory, could be divided into technical progress and tech-structure change. This could be defined as an action of progress, which effects through the translation from science and tech into productive force. In the perspective of production, techs change is an interactive process between social demands and the progress of S&T system. While seen from the results, it refers to an interactive process, in which a combination of production factors could produce more values together, and this process itself reflects the effect of structure. In conclusion, the assessment of tech structure is both needed by theory and practice.Since techs built up a sophisticated system, in which factors interact frequently, we should not only increase one factor in isolation, instead, other factors must be considered. As S&T develop and divert into production force rapidly, tech change has become a vital, even critical, factor in economic development. It has been a common sense that using the force of technology could promote economic progress. Therefore, research on tech structures based on system theory has both theory meanings and practical meanings.I This paper defines technical structure as the existing format of tech phenomenon system, or as the connection of the factors system. As to tech phenomenon, there are there conditions: first, objective technical phenomenon such as telephone, computer or airplane; second, subjective technical phenomenon, like definitive experiences, skills and expressed methods and knowledge in forms of conceptions; third, unarticulated technical phenomenon, as the skills people using machined practically and the recognition strategy and definitions formation in mind. The technical structure refers to these three phenomenon appearing and structuring process. Here's an obvious difference in technical structure from that of engineers, that it is a comprehensive understanding in this paper, in which technical phenomenon is expressed and paraphrased in a series of definitions. While general engineers and scholars just describe and analyze the phenomenon itself.Literatures on technical structure are not sufficient because the definition, technical structure, is still new. Meanwhile, there are also disagrees in the assessing indicators. In this paper, the assessing indictors of technical structure are built in aspects of input and output, based on the principles of reasonable, comparative and pertinent, and also on the existing research results. According to the method of AHP, the paper chooses six measurable indicators as of the industry structure, builds up hierarchy of assessment, and also decides their proportions.Through these analyses, the further analyzing of technical structure influencing industry structure and industry influencing economic growth indirectly illustrates the interactive relationship between technical structure and economic growth. When analyzing the relationship between technical structure and industry structure, some outputs of Synergetic are used. Synergetic refers to a sort of relationship between things, in which they corporate positively and with harmonies. Some important, relative definitions are below: development synergeticly, a dynamic relationship of things, in condition of developing, progressing with cooperation and inter-promotion; technology and industry developing synergeticly means the cooperation and inter-promotion of these two factors, which indicates a kind of differentiate relationship; technical structure and industry structure developing synergetic refers to that, in the progress, the development of one factor feed back immediately as opportunity and promotion of the other factor. They follow the steps of each other, avoiding anyone of them go faster or slower. When analyzing the interaction of industry structure and economic growth, the paper synthetic relative theories in neoclassic economics and industry structures, chooses statistics data of 1984-2008 in China for analysis.
