Then the situation of each province is reflected objectively. As far as evaluation method is concerned, factor analysis is used to carried on horizontal comparison to the Science and Technology Competitiveness of thirty province provinces. Cluster analysis is adopted to classify them, result of which is basically identical with the previous one . Finally, grey prediction theory is applied to forecast the science and technology competitiveness of Beijing, Shangh, Tianjin and Chongqing and obtain the values in 2011.
