We introduce a diffusion of innovation model based on a network threshold approach. Realistic network and threshold … data were gathered regarding the diffusion of new software tools within part of a large organization. Novel model features … simulations produce expected outcomes, such as the S-shaped diffusion curve, but also diffusion breakdown and oscillations. We …
