“…Therefore, Hypothesis 1-3-2 is inferred to be valid. connection and modulation that occurs between different firms increases explosively in the process of their cooperation with different technologies and sizes for technology development and collaboration for patent applications [23,[76][77][78][79]. Therefore, Hypothesis 1-3-2 is inferred to be valid.…”

“…There is a trade-off between the benefits of connecting non-neighboring nodes and the cost of the effort to maintain links-including settings in which the costs are nonuniform-which reflects the increased difficulty in spanning different parts of a hierarchical organization [75]. Regarding the firms examined in this study in the area of information communication, including smartphone firms, the scope of connection and modulation that occurs between different firms increases explosively in the process of their cooperation with different technologies and sizes for technology development and collaboration for patent applications [23,[76][77][78][79]. Therefore, Hypothesis 1-3-2 is inferred to be valid.…”

Abstract:The way people innovate and create new ideas and bring them to the market is undergoing a fundamental change from closed innovation to open innovation. Why and how do firms perform open innovation? Firms' open innovation is measured through the levels of firms' joint patent applications. Next, we analyze network structures and characters of firms' joint patent applications such as betweenness and degree centrality, structure hole, and closure. From this research, we drew conclusions as follows. First, the structure of collaboration networks has both direct and indirect effects on firms' innovative performance. Second, in the process of joint patent applications, there is a long tail phenomenon in networks of joint patent applications. Third, the number of patents and International Patent Classification (IPC) subclasses together constitute a meaningful measure of the innovation performance of firms.

Background: In case of a cardiac arrest the start of cardiopulmonary resuscitation by a bystander before the arrival of the emergency personnel, increases the probability of survival. However, the steps of high-quality resuscitation are not known by every bystander or might be forgotten in this complex and time-critical situation. Smartphone applications offering real-time step-by-step instructions might be a valuable source of information.

“…All 6 are English-language examples from the United States, an acknowledged limitation of our work. Another limitation: we chose to limit our discussion here to mobile apps that are available free of cost and developed for Android and iOS, two of the most popular and accessible mobile operating systems for users of smartphones and for developers designing and publishing apps [15]. Following the section on minor apps, we focus on some of the glitches and limitations that we've been discovering by analyzing the data traces generated by minor apps, how the apps utilize databases, and issues of metadata creation.…”
