Technological Forecasting and Social Change, 2014Abstract The ability to forecast new product growth is especially important for innovative firms that compete in the marketplace.

The study of urban systems accompanied the beginning of quantitative geography in the 1960s, and is quickly becoming one of the discipline’s most rapidly developing fields (Murayama 1982a). From concepts of the 1960s that emphasized an explanation of static spatial order in one time period such as King’s urban dimension (1966), Berry’s distribution ...

Invention, Innovation and Diffusion
1988In the twentieth century, competition between firms has been largely on the basis of product improvements and cost advantages generated by developments in methods of production and organisation. However, textbooks often ignore the process of change, concentrating instead on the beneficial effects of price competition.

Management Science, 1980This paper examines the diffusion of a particular kind of multidivisional administrative structure—the “M-Form”—in two classes of large industrial firms. The M-Form organization is a multidivisional structure with quasi-independent divisions which are assigned profit center standing and which are monitored and guided by a headquarters organization.
