Technological Innovation and Network Evolution. Questo articolo non è disponibile.Technological Innovation and Network Evolution

Technological Innovation and Network Evolution is one of the first volumes to illuminate contemporary network innovation in advanced technologies from a historical and evolutionary perspective. By looking at the new area of digital image processing, or 'machine vision', Anders Lundgren traces the advances which have been made as the technology becomes more and more highly developed, and the way in which success - and failure - relates to different kinds of organizational forms and industrial relationships. Through an examination of key issues, including public policy, system-builders, corporate strategy and internationalization, the author highlights the unique features of networks and the reasons for their growth and decline.
In this thought-provoking volume, Anders Lundgren shows a rare appreciation of the process of generating a network, showing clearly the role of trial and error, the limits of policy, and the nature of support by constellations of producers and users. Students and researchers concerned with the management of innovation will find this of great interest, as will policy makers aiming to foster technological and industrial change.

Anders Lundgren is Assistant Professor at the Stockholm School of Economics.
