Innovation ecosystems: A conceptual review and a new definition

The evolution of markets under entry and standards regulation — the case of global mobile telecommunications

We explore the evolution of the mobile infrastructure in South Korea through the lens of actor network theory. In particular, we analyze the roles of standards in promoting, enabling and constraining innovation in broadband mobile services over a 10-year period. During this period, Korea moved from the position of a follower to the forefront of the mobile computing revolution by erecting one of the world's most advanced broadband mobile infrastructures. Our study shows how CDMA standards shaped specific configurations of actor networks that enabled the fast and aggressive development and deployment of 2G mobile infrastructures and a rapid transition to 3G services. These actor networks span three separate and critical realms of activities: the regulatory regime, the innovation system, and the market place. Our in-depth case analysis shows how specific connections and events across these three realms promoted the rapid expansion and deployment of mobile services in Korea. Our study suggests that successful innovation and diffusion of broadband mobile services are collective achievements and firms need to deploy strategies that enable them to mobilize broad socio-technical networks that include technological, institutional, political and financial resources. At the heart of such strategies, standards play critical roles as they mediate different interests and motivations among participating actors.

This paper is a summary of the major technical report of the IFAC/IFIP Task Force on Architectures for Integrating Manufacturing Activities and Enterprises. It presents a synopsis of the investigations of pertinent architectures undertaken, and the findings generated relating to the suitability of various architectures for the integration task. It also presents the Task Force's recommendations for achieving a “complete” architecture in terms of the necessary capabilities by “completing” a currently available architecture. The Task Force also outlined how a “best” architecture could be achieved by selecting and combining the best features of the available architectures.

Intellectual property rights and standardization: the case of GSM

Successful traffic incident management presupposes a multi-disciplinary approach. To meet appropriately the safety and mobility needs of all affected parties, traffic incidents call for a high level of collaboration and coordination of involved agencies. Effective traffic incident management activities rely in particular on flexible communications and information systems.Based on experiences from the military domain it is possible to develop strategic concepts that are related to the improvement of information sharing and collaboration. Such concepts can also be applied to enhanced traffic incident management information systems. The present paper aims to offer a review of the state of the art in this field and to illustrate the empirical usefulness and benefits of traffic incident management.

Digital Video Broadcasting: Technology, Standards, and Regulations

From the Publisher:
This comprehensive overview brings you up-to-date on new technologies for low-speed data, speech, and broadband communications, competing standards, adjacent technologies, new generation networks, and future developments. It's the only book on mobile telecommunications technology in Europe to include all new developments up to 1998. The book's coverage of historical, market, and technology data not only extends to all European Union member states, plus Norway and Switzerland, but also offers detailed comparisons with developments in the United States and Japan. It includes up-to-date discussions on standards such as TETRA/Tetrapol, POGSAC/ERMES/FLEX, and W-CDMA , several adjacent technologies such as VSAT, (d-) GSP and DAB broadcasting, and US and Japanese standards such as IS-95 CDMA, D-AMPS, FLEX/ReFlex, and PDC.

The book offers a balanced approach to technical and relevant background data  in an easy-to-read format  to help you really understand each standard. Cover to cover, you get the in-depth information you need to: 

>Compare design features and standards for the various technologies

>Develop a set of criteria for choosing a mobile communications platform for a specific application

>Assess competitive issues between different networks and technologies and market network services

>Gain insight into the strategies of manufacturers, network operators, standardization bodies, regional and national governments, and users

>Understand how regulation and the rules of competition impact market developments in Europe.

This time-saving reference for technical engineers, telecommunications and mobilecommunications managers, IT managers and consultants, and strategy analysts. It is also a valuable book for university students and technical researchers.
