Abstract: 1 We thank members of DELTA for their participation in the project. We also would like to acknowledge comments received by two anonymous reviewers that helped us improve the quality of the paper. 2 MODIFICATIONS AND INNOVATIONS TO TECHNOLOGY ARTIFACTS ABSTRACTWhat happens to a technology artifact after it is adopted?

“…Incremental innovations developed by LEUs often represent complementary functionalities that can be realized as attachable/ detachable "gadgets" (add-ons). These reversible innovations can be implemented without making substantial modifications to the product representing customization efforts (Desouza et al, 2007). These innovations actually may not require the owner's permission.…”

Innovation classifications have been used in exploring impact of different factors on innovation in different contexts or in exploring relationships of different types of innovation on different contexts (Balthasar, Battig, Thierstein, & Wilhelm, 2000;Chang & Shih, 2004;Chiffoleau, 2005;Desouza, Awazu, & Ramaprasad, 2007;Du, Love, & Roper, 2007;Freel, 2005;Johne, 1999;Liao, Fei, & Liu, 2008;Ottosson, 2004;Palmberg, 2006;Shefer & Frenkel, 2005;Todtling, Lehner, & Kaufmann, 2009).…”
