Technology diffusion: analysing the diffusion of agent technologies
Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems, 2008Despite several examples of deployed agent systems, there remain barriers to the large-scale adoption of agent technologies. In order to understand these barriers, this paper considers aspects of marketing theory which deal with diffusion of innovations and their relevance to the agents domain and the current state of diffusion of agent technologies ...

Technological Expectations And The Diffusion Of ‘Intermediate’ Technologies
Economics of Innovation and New Technology, 2000The concept of ‘technological expectations’ has established itself as a key one in the smdy of innovation adoption. The article suggests that it may help explaining not just the adopters' timing decisions, but also their decisions regarding the kind of innovation they adopt.

The Diffusion of Multiple Process Technologies
The Economic Journal, 1994The objective of this paper is to analyze the simultaneous diffusion of multiple process technologies. A theoretical model of the diffusion of a new process technology is developed that takes account of the existence of another new technology that is being simultaneously diffused.

Technology Diffusion and Public Policy
The Economic Journal, 1994A useful typology of technological change is provided by the Schumpeterian trilogy: invention (the generation of new ideas), innovation (the development of those ideas through to the first marketing or use of a technology) and diffusion (the spread of new technology across its potential market).

Lexical distance and the diffusion of technology
The World Economy, 2022AbstractThis research shows that linguistic differences can influence the diffusion of technology and income between countries. I use a measure of language similarity known as the normalised Levenshtein distance to show that lexical distances closely track bilateral differences in the adoption intensities of key production technologies.

Novelty in Diffusion Coating Technology
Materials and Manufacturing Processes, 2009Diffusion forming of a hard carbide layer has been used for many years, mostly in Japan (Toyota Diffusion Process, TDR) and in the USA (Thermoreactive Deposition, TRD) but not so much in Europe. Carbide layers on constructive parts and tools formed by a diffusion process, especially a vanadium carbide layer, have excellent tribological properties and ...

Industry and Higher Education, 1993
The need for a policy on technology diffusion is a high priority in the UK if the manufacturing base is to be sustained. Although HE institutions are the largest and most extensive publicly-funded resource of technical expertise in the UK, their first responsibility is teaching and research; they do not have the resources to assist companies on routine
