Two halves don't make a whole : instability and idleness emerging from the co-evolution of the production and innovation processes

Lobet, Corentin; Llerena, Patrick; Lorentz, André - 2024

We propose a disaggregated representation of production using an agent-based fund-flow model that emphasizes inefficiencies, such as factor idleness and production instability, and allows us to explore their emergence through simulations. The model incorporates productivity dynamics (learning...

Difusing new technology without dissipating rents : some historical case studies of knowledge sharing

Bessen, James; Nuvolari, Alessandro - 2017 - This version: November, 2017

The diffusion of innovations is supposed to dissipate inventors' rents. Yet in many documented cases, inventors freely shared knowledge with their competitors. Using a model and case studies, this paper explores why sharing did not eliminate inventors' incentives. Each new technology coexisted...

How provincial is your region? : Effects on labour productivity in Europe

Gambardella, Alfonso (contributor); … - 2003 - [Elektronische Ressource]

This paper estimates the determinants of labour productivity in European NUTS regions during 1989-1996. Unlike previous studies, which have focussed either on local technological capabilities or on agglomeration economies, we compare three potential explanations of regional advantages:...

Coping with increasing tides: technological change, agglomeration dynamics and climate hazards in an agent-based evolutionary model

Taberna, Alessandro; Filatova, Tatiana; Roventini, Andrea; … - 2021

By 2050 about 70% of the world's population is expected to live in cities. Cities offer spatial economic advantages that boost agglomeration forces and innovation, fostering further concentration of economic activities. For historic reasons urban clustering occurs along coasts and rivers, which...
