Ist das bestehende Patentrecht fur Erfindungen im Bereich der Softwareentwicklung angemessen? Weitgehend unklar ist bislang, wie sich die bestehende Rechtspraxis sowie alternative Formen der Patentierung hinsichtlich software-bezogener Erfindungen auswirken. Gleichzeitig sind aber bisher auch die genauen Grenzen der Patentierbarkeit software-bezogener Erfindungen sehr verschwommen. Der vorliegende Band ist das Ergebnis der interdisziplinaren Zusammenarbeit von Innovationsforschern und Rechtswissenschaftlern. Er bietet eine ausfuhrliche Analyse der okonomischen Implikationen der Patentierung...

This book addresses the new field of standards dynamics. It focuses in particular on the tension between standards and change. Standards are points of reference and should therefore be inherently stable (at least to a certain degree). However, technologies change at an increasing pace, particularly in the field of information technology (IT). This requires the development of more standards and more updates, and leads to increased competition between standards. In many situations problems arise, such as how to retain compatibility if standards keep on changing and whether to adopt the new...

The economics of standardisation has grown into a very important area of industrial economics. This text serves as a useful review of the research that has already been done and as a collection of Blind's empirical work in the field.

Innovation and standardization might seem polar opposites, but over many years various scholars have noted close connections between the two. This Handbook assembles a broad range of thinking on this subject, with contributions from several disciplinary perspectives by over 30 leading scholars and experienced practitioners. Collectively, they summarize and synthesize the existing body of knowledge - theory and evidence - pertaining to standards and innovation, and provide insights into how this knowledge can be useful to scholars, industrial strategists, policy-makers and standards...
