Technology as
knowledge
procedures routines artifacts
Evidence
Diversity of knowledge-bases across production and Innovation Activities Diversity of sources of knowledge . Diversity of procedures by which knowledge is technologically exploited
An interpretative framework
The structure of technological knowledge: Technological paradigms Selected physical/chemical principles and knowledge bases Notions of artifacts (e.g. dominant design) Specific heuristics (how do we search?, where do we go from here?, ) Communities of practice
An interpretative framework
An interpretative framework
Dimensions of technological paradigms Opportunities of innovation Degrees of tacitness / codification of knowledge Cumulativeness in learning processes
Industry specific regimes (e.g. Schumpeter Mark I and Mark II) Sectoral taxonomies
Industrial evolution
Driven by
idiosyncratic learning entry competitive selection
Diffusion processes
The drivers
[indeed not much progress over the last decade or more A lot to be done ahead ]
Path-dependency
Disentangling the opaque relationship between organizational practices and outcome Replicability within the organization Shielding organization - specific practices
From the statistical regularities to the models and back The statistics / microeconometrics of evolutionary processes Some crucial challenges
- the status of replicator dynamics - history friendly models - ABM formalizations
