In today’s constantly changing business environment, the ability to acquire knowledge, and to do it quickly, is often the difference between surviving and not surviving. Organizational learning is therefore being recognized as a critical organizational function of considerable interest to...

This study aims to reveal the complex mechanism influencing technology standard competitiveness (TSC) in the artificial intelligence industry. Compared with research using traditional linear models, this research adopts the fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) method to obtain the...

The experiment explained in this paper helps students to understand the importance of network externalities in the evolution of industries and technology. Complex enough to permit exploration of the role of strategic pricing in network industries, the method is still flexible enough to allow...

We consider platform competition in a two-sided market, where the two sides (buyers and sellers) have ex-ante uncertainty and ex- post asymmetric information concerning the value of a new tech- nology. We find that platform competition may lead to a market failure: competition may result in a...

We consider platform competition in a two-sided market, where the two sides (buyers and sellers) have ex-ante uncertainty and ex-post asymmetric information concerning the value of a new technology. We find that platform competition may lead to a market failure: competition may result in a lower...

Internet of Things (IoT) technologies are of particular interest for telecommunication companies that can significantly affect the interaction of economic agents. As a result of the growth in the number of connected devices, the introduction of cloud services and business applications it became...

General purpose technologies (GPTs) have been important drivers of industrial revolutions and economic development, but their link to standards has not been analyzed systematically. We document that all of the most common examples of GPTs—steam, railway, electricity and information (and...

We develop a valid definition of technological radicalness which states that a successful radical invention is: (1) novel, (2) unique, and (3) has an impact on future technology. The first two criteria allow us to identify potentially radical inventions ex ante market introduction; adding the...

Availability of real-time information facilitates efficient production coordination. Effective applications of RFID technology in the automated manufacturing environment can help optimize system. Information available on real time basis, increase the efficiency and effectiveness of any...
