Chinese firms bridging the standardization gap in 3GPP
Chinese firms often face liabilities of outsidership, struggling to access established global technology development networks. Focusing on technical standardization, we analyze how generational technology shifts affect collaboration in 3GPP, the body developing global telecommunication standards. Employing fractional logit regressions on a standards contribution panel dataset, we observe that Chinese firms strengthened their collaboration in stan…
Voting or consensus? An empirical study of decision-making in the European standards body Etsi
In recent years, notable attention has been paid to the governance aspects of standard-setting organizations and their implications for the legitimacy of standardization. The recent European Commission policy on standardization has fuelled this interest by requesting ETSI, one of the three formal European Standardisation Organisations, to make changes to its governance and voting rules. This raises the question of how important voting actually is…
Industry consortia in mobile telecommunications standards setting
In mobile telecommunications, numerous formal and quasi-formal standard setting organizations (SSOs) exist that are dedicated to technology standardization. Yet, hundreds of more or less informal industry consortia have been established that also deal with technical standards. Some of these aim to develop standards themselves – and thus compete with existing, formal standard setting organizations – while others complement existing organizations o…
How cumulative is technological knowledge
Technological cumulativeness is considered one of the main mechanisms for technological progress, yet its exact meaning and dynamics often remain unclear. To develop a better understanding of this mechanism, we approach a technology as a body of knowledge consisting of interlinked inventions. Technological cumulativeness can then be understood as the extent to which inventions build on other inventions within that same body of knowledge. The cumu…
The science base of renewables
Initiatives to foster the development of Renewable Energy Technologies (RETs) can benefit from a deep understanding of the science base that underlies such technologies, and especially how that science base differs from that of Fossil Fuel based Energy Technologies (FFETs). This paper investigates both science bases using citations in patents to scientific journals. We find that RETs generally have a more substantial science base and draw on a mo…
Analysing knowledge transfer channels between universities and industry
Gender and Doubts about Study in Technology
A cross-cultural investigation of the doubts of male and female students in technology about their academic programs was conducted. Data were gathered from 477 students of two universities, one in Hungary and the other in the Netherlands. An exploratory model was developed, based on concepts from Eccles's (1987) model of educational choice and Tinto's (1975) model of educational dropout. The expectation that female students and Hungarian students…
