This paper describes the co-evolution of East and West German innovation networks after the German reunification in 1990 by analyzing publication data from 1972 to 2014. This study uses the following four benchmark models to interpret and classify German innovation networks: the random graph...

Die Expertise fragt danach, welche bildungspolitischen Konsequenzen sich aus Europäisierungsprozessen, aus neuen Produktionskonzepten und aus Zugangsbarrieren zur Ausbildung für das Duale System beruflicher Bildung und seine Weiterentwicklung ergeben. Sie setzt sich kritisch mit aktuellen...

In our work we adopt a structural perspective and apply an agent-based simulation approach to analyse knowledge diffusion processes in four structurally distinct networks. The aim of this paper is to gain an in-depth understanding of how network characteristics, such as path length, cliquishness...

Our primary goal is to analyse the drivers of evolutionary network change processes by using a stochastic actor-based simulation approach. We contribute to the literature by combining two unique datasets, concerning the German laser and automotive industry, between 2002 and 2006 to explore...
