In this study, the methodology of evaluating the similarity for R&D programs related to the disaster and safety management (hereafter ‘disaster R&D’) was proposed to enhance the efficiencies of R&D performances and to encourage the inter-agencies cooperative R&D programs. In the similarity evaluation scheme of NTIS (National Technology Information Service), several parameters should be identified before their applications and the characteristics of disaster-related R&D, so-called ‘complexity’ could not be taken into considerations. To solve the problem, the methodology based on the edit-distance and Gephi were introduced in this study. The edit-distance is the frequently used for estimating the similarity between interests and can be easily applied by simple preparations. To verify the performances of the methodology proposed in this study, as an example, 91 disaster R&Ds were applied. As the results, the new methodology could classify the similar disaster R&Ds effectively and efficiently with respect to their aims and contents.
