Excerpt from Technological Discontinuities: The Emergence of Fiber Optics This pattern of discontinuity occurs when new firms entering the existing business introduce a product with very different properties from the existing ones. The new product is so unrelated to the existing one that traditional firms cannot use existing processes to replicate the new product since a new process is required. Although initially crude and expensive, the new product's higher performance in at least one dimension enable it to enter niche markets. As the dominant design (abernathy, 1978) for the new product emerges, it introduces both major product and process changes compared to theexisting product which is being changed incrementally to improve productivity.

Published in 1998. In the past year the 300 largest global companies increased their research budgets by an average of 12 per cent. Governments now measure how technologically advanced they are as they worry about their trade balances and unemployment. Many public sector organizations, for example hospitals, universities and welfare agencies, are struggling to keep up with the rate of technological progress. The selections in this book provide a number of insights on how private firms can be more innovative and public sector organizations can keep up with rapid technological change. They emphasize both radical and incremental innovations and both product and process innovation. In particular the advanced manufacturing technologies so central to Piore and Sabel’s ’Second Industrial Divide’ receive a great deal of attention. Finally, the consequences of innovation are the focus of the last section.

This paper surveys recent research on the concept of a dominant product design. The point of departure for the survey is the idea that dominant designs occur which shift the terms of competition in an industry. A dominant design is defined as a specific path along a design hierarchy, which establishes primacy among competing design paths. The way in which this might occur and its implications for innovation and competition are then explored. Evidence from the literature covering a number of industries in the United States is then surveyed and compared with original evidence, first presented here, from some of the same industries in Japan. The dominant design which emerges in each industry is not necessarily the result solely of technical potentials, but also of timing, collateral assets, and other circumstances. In several cases dominant designs have not or have not yet occurred. Once a degree of standardization is accepted, major innovations in an industry seem less and less likely to occur short of a wave of new entrants and increasing competition. In contrast, entry and innovation in Japan seem to occur following appearance of the dominant design, and implies that firms can pursue widely different strategies so long as their strategy is linked to the state of evolution of their core technology. Implications for further research are discussed, and the idea that a dominant design is related to information economies for users is introduced. Thus, for a design to be dominant or a standard requires a degree of experimentation and a rich collaboration between producers and users, not simply a synthesis of parts and functions in a product.

This book is based on the findings, issues and questions related to an ongoing decade-old research project named the Innovation Lab (www.innovation-lab.org). The research project focuses on discontinuous innovation in more than thirteen countries, most of which are European, and provides useful insights into its different challenges. It also raises several questions related to the subject, some of which are: how do firms pick up weak signals on emerging — and possibly radically different — innovation? What should firms do when these weak signals hit their “mainstream” process? What are the criteria for allocating resources to a strategic innovation project? What actions should firms take to avoid being left out by the “corporate immune system”? How should firms organize projects that often break existing rules and require new rules to be created? This book attempts to provide answers to the above mentioned questions by gathering information from the research project and also from firms that have tried exploring various ideas, models and insights to tackle discontinuous innovation. Written in a simple and accessible manner, this book will be of interest to both practitioners and academics alike.

Most analysts of corporations and industries adopt the focal perspective of a single prototypical organization. Many analysts also study corporations primarily in terms of their internal organizational structures or as complex systems of financial contracts. Glenn Carroll and Michael Hannan bring fresh insight to our understanding of corporations and the industries they comprise by looking beyond prototypical structures to focus on the range and diversity of organizations in their social and economic setting. The result is a rich rendering of analysis that portrays whole populations and communities of corporations. The Demography of Corporations and Industries is the first book to present the demographic approach to organizational studies in its entirety. It examines the theory, models, methods, and data used in corporate demographic research. Carroll and Hannan explore the processes by which corporate populations change over time, including organizational founding, growth, decline, structural transformation, and mortality. They review and synthesize the major theoretical mechanisms of corporate demography, ranging from aging and size dependence to population segregation and density dependence. The book also explores some selected implications of corporate demography for public policy, including employment and regulation. In this path-breaking book, Carroll and Hannan demonstrate why demographic research on corporations is important; describe how to conduct demographic research; specify fruitful areas of future research; and suggest how the demographic perspective can enrich the public discussion of issues surrounding the corporation in our constantly evolving industrial society. All researchers and analysts with an interest in this topic will find The Demography of Corporations and Industries an invaluable resource.
