Oulton, Nicholas - In: Economic Modelling 29 (2012) 5, pp. 1722-1736
How big a boost to long run growth can countries expect from the ICT revolution? I use the results of growth accounting … required because of the very rapid rate at which the prices of ICT products have fallen in the past and are expected to fall in … the future. According to the two-sector model, the main boost to growth comes from ICT use, not ICT production. Even a …

Convergence of firm-level productivity, globalisation, information technology and competition: evidence from France
Chevalier, Paul-Antoine; Lecat, Rémy; Oulton, Nicholas - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2009
Studies of firm-level data have shown that there is a huge dispersion of productivity across firms even when industries are narrowly defined. So there is a significant opportunity for the least productive firms to catch up to the most productive. The formers’ convergence could therefore...

Convergence of firm-level productivity, globalisation and information technology: Evidence from France
Chevalier, Paul-Antoine; Lecat, Rémy; Oulton, Nicholas - In: Economics Letters 116 (2012) 2, pp. 244-246
This article studies the firm-level productivity convergence process in the 1990s and the 2000s in France. The speed of convergence has slowed during the course of the 1990s, a fact which is explained principally by the acceleration of the productivity of firms on the technological frontier....
