Technological diffusion is defined widely as the process by which the market for a new technology changes over time and … level, via consideration of intensive and extensive margins. Realized diffusion patterns are discussed and theoretical … underpinnings of the diffusion process explored. Econometric models, data availability, and estimation are also considered although …

The simultaneous diffusion of several technologies is studied. We build a modcl that encompasses recent theoretical … arguments on diffusion and cxtend these to the multipie technologies case. The model is estimated using a panel of data on UK … manufacturing industries relating to the diffusion of five technologies: Computer Numerically Controlled machine tools, Numerically …

diffusion margins – the extensive, referring to the spreading of first use across economies and the intensive, referring to the … extensive margins in global diffusion over time. Using data on steamships and the basic oxygen process for steelmaking we also … explore whether there are international spillovers in the diffusion process. We find evidence of spillovers which appear more …
