Knowledge diffusion performance of innovation network: A study based on organization evolution theory

Abstract

Based on Organization Evolution Theory knowledge diffusion performance of innovation network is studied from the perspective of environmental choice and organization adaptation in our work. A new knowledge diffusion model based on multi-agent simulation is put forward to solve the defects of the existing ones without regard to how competition-cooperation degree between agents and different organization learning patterns jointly impact on knowledge diffusion of innovation network. A series of conclusions are obtained through simulation experiments. These conclusions are verified by the longitudinal development of Liushi innovation network for low-voltage apparatus.
