“…For example, as mobile phones and digital cameras are considered two different products, no diffusion studies have treated the mobile phone as a product in competition with the digital camera. In another area, most of the literature dealing with the online music market focuses on illegal MP3 filesharing, free downloading, and copyright issues [18]- [21]. On the subject of diffusion, in [22], a new diffusion model is derived which considers the relationship between software and hardware as well as the impact of software piracy.…”

Analyzing the diffusion of a convergence product is a new and challenging research field. It is very difficult to find research dealing with this issue due to the inherent complexity and lack of data. In analyzing the diffusion of a convergence product, we should simultaneously take into account its relationship with related single-function products because of their similarities in terms of technology and functionality. In this study, we empirically analyze the diffusion of the convergence mobile phones in South Korea and find that the convergence products can affect the diffusion of MP3 players and digital cameras positively or negatively. This research may be significant for business strategies in technology management and product development.

“…Though the concept of reverse salient has since been borrowed by various scholars to narratively explore different technological systems [see e.g. 28,30,36], the literature offers few examples of the concept's analytical use. Traditional research in particular lacks an analytical measure of reverse salience.…”

Maximizing the performance evolution of a technology system relies on optimizing investments in the appropriate sub-systems. This approach subsequently minimizes the impact of a sub-system that trails in technological performance and hinders systemic development, referred to as the reverse salient. In this paper, we developed a performance gap and a time gap measure to analyze reverse salience and applied this measurement technique to an empirical study of the personal computer (PC) technology system's graphics processing unit (GPU) and PC game sub-systems with special focus on the system's overall computational performance in game play. Our measurements of the temporal behavior of reverse salience with the above measures indicate that the PC game sub-system is the reverse salient, continuously trailing behind the technological performance of the GPU sub-system from 1996 through 2006. Additionally, our results highlight the fact that whereas the time gap measure reveals a fairly consistent three-year period of the PC game sub-system closing the performance differential to the GPU sub-system, the performance gap measure shows an increasing disparity between the sub-systems over the same period. We discuss our empirical findings by elaborating on possible underlying causes and by providing managerial implications.

“…3,4,5], our current understanding of the dynamics of reverse salience and its influence on product performance remains limited. Traditional research is especially deficient insofar as the provision of an analytical measure of reverse salience and the application of this measure in studies of technological systems is missing.…”

In this paper we firstly develop a means to measure the technological performance disparity between evolving technological sub-systems of the PC (personal computer) system and subsequently employ this measure in the study of the GPU (graphics processing unit) and PC game sub-systems' evolutions. Secondly, the paper explores the connection between the observed temporal behavior of technological performance gap and the product performance of PC games, as measured by game ratings. Our findings suggest that the level of technological performance of the PC game sub-system trails that of the GPU sub-system within the analyzed timeframe with oscillating technological disparity. In addition, our exploratory study of the evolution of technological performance and its relationship with product performance does not highlight a noteworthy connection, implying that game developers are not assured of high performance of their products despite being first to develop products of higher technological performance.
