The Hardware Looking For Software: Exploiting Indirect Network Effects In The Product Life Cycle

Objective

This research aims at understanding the structural inter- dependence between new hardware (e.g. DVD-player) and the availability of software (like DVD movies) over the product life cycle. This prompts a better understanding of diffusion and prediction of takeoff of new technologies.
