This paper studies the impact of collaboration on research output. First, we build a micro founded model for scientific knowledge production, where collaboration between researchers is represented by a bipartite network. The equilibrium of the game incorporates both the complementarity effect...

"This book covers the implementation of green processes into software systems, contributing novel principles, methodologies, and tools to improve software development by featuring comprehensive and timely coverage on various areas in service strategy and modeling, engineering, and...

"This book provides relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings in the area, clarifying the present chaotic and confusing literature of the current state of the art and knowledge in the areas of the design and engineering of the many emerging software...

"This book clarifies the present fast-advancing literature of the current state of art and knowledge in the areas of the development and reuse of reusable assets in emerging software systems and applications"--Provided by publisher.

We study the impact of research collaborations in coauthorship networks on total research output. Through the links in the collaboration network researchers create spillovers not only to their direct coauthors but also to researchers indirectly linked to them. We characterize the interior...

We study a structural model of R&D alliance networks in which firms jointly form R&D collaborations to lower their production costs while competing on the product market. We derive the Nash equilibrium of this game, provide a welfare analysis and determine the optimal R&D subsidy program that...

This paper analyzes the formation of networks in which each agent is assumed to possess some information of value to the other agents in the network. Agents derive payoff from having access to the information of others through communication or spillovers via the links between them. Linking...
