This authoritative book presents a selection of the most important
published articles and papers on the computing industry - an
industry that after five decades of growth permeates virtually all
areas of modern economic activity. Many economists believe the
diffusion of computing has been a catalyst and a driver of economic
growth. This has stimulated research into the microeconomic
determinants and consequences of computing. This collection
provides a state-of-the-art survey of advances in applied and
empirical approaches to the industrial economics of computing. The
first section of the book presents several distinct approaches to
the measurement of frontier research in computing. The second
section addresses the factors shaping the industrial structure for
supplying computer goods and services. The third section focuses on
the determinants of the adoption and diffusion of information
technology. Shane Greenstein - a leading scholar in the field - has
written a new and authoritative introduction which provides a
comprehensive overview of the subject. This is an important feature
of the volume which will be an essential reference source for both
industrial and business economists concerned with the computing
industry.
