This paper explores the current limits to the complexity of design and manufacturing processes that can be reliably created or executed by humans, as well as exploring the general categories of products that can’t currently can’t reliably be manufactured as a consequence. This paper also explores how nature removes those barriers to complexity in its design and manufacturing, as well as how nature removes the barriers to the complex cooperation through which this complex design and manufacturing become sustainably viable, and how General Collective Intelligence replicates the adaptive problem solving processes by which nature does so. Finally, this paper explores why the type of products that can’t currently be manufactured, and why the patterns of complex cooperation that can’t currently be reliably executed, are both critically important, and therefore why General Collective Intelligence is critically important to the future of manufacturing.

“…Technology cooperation and supplier cultivation are crucial strategies in high-tech industries where companies are pursuing enhanced product design, timing and cost reductions, and improved indigenous technological capabilities [1]. In a specific example of a high-tech industry, the supply chain associated with complex product systems (CoPS) is subject to high research and development (R&D) costs due to the oligopolistic nature of the technology-intensive market for CoPS [2], [3]. For example, the global aircraft giants Airbus and Boeing have controlled the international market for…”

Strategies for Improving the Capabilities of a Weak Main Manufacturer in Complex Products Systems

This paper examines possible strategies for helping a weak main manufacturer to improve its indigenous technological capabilities. We consider two competitive suppliers and one main manufacturer that exhibit differential abilities within a supply chain of complex product systems (CoPS). The weak main manufacturer is focused on encouraging a powerful supplier to license its technology to a domestic supplier and on cultivating a relationship with the domestic supplier. We have designed a cost-sharing (no-licensing, NL) contract and a technology licensing (TL) contract to facilitate cultivation of the supplier relationship and cooperation with regard to technology. The optimal decisions and comparative analysis are characterized under a scenario of cost-sharing and technology licensing based on a benchmark model. The results show that both contracts are effective with respect to technology cooperation and supplier cultivation. However, additional findings show that the most efficient scenario is associated with the TL contract. Numerical examples have been employed for analyzing the validity of a variety of strategies. as well as determining the effect of key parameters on optimal decisions. Useful management insights regarding cooperation strategy and optimal decisions are also obtained.

Evolutionary game analysis on behavioral strategies of four participants in green technology innovation system

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

To study the sustainable development of the green technology innovation system (GTIS), more and more people have begun to pay attention to the behavior evolution and strategic choice of participants. This paper develops a four‐participant evolutionary game model to study the interaction and behavior evolution of government, financial institutions, enterprises, and the public on green technology innovation (GTI), determines the payoff matrix of GTIS, derives replicator dynamic equations, calculates evolutionary stability strategies (ESSs) of participants, and identifies evolution paths of ESSs through numerical simulations. The findings show that in most cases, the government prefers to adopt “weak supervision” strategies to regulate the market, and the public prefers to adopt “supervision” strategies to supervise enterprises. Encouraging enterprises to implement GTI through subsidies and funding support is a vital means in the initial stage of sustainable development. It is imperative to establish a multi‐participant collaborative governance mechanism to promote the sustained and sound GTIS development.
