Research on the Model of Knowledge Diffusion among Enterprises in Global Innovation Networks:Based on Scale-Free Network Theory
[Objective/Significance]In the context of the knowledge economy,the global innovation network has become the platform for knowledge flow between global enterprises.This paper constructs an inter-enterprise knowledge diffusion model to study the modes of knowledge diffusion among enterprises in the global innovation network,promoting the development of the global innovation network.[Methods/Processes]The study is primarily based on scale-free network theory.A directed network model is established and simulated.Combining the simulation results with the concepts of knowledge-intensive enterprises and labor-intensive enterprises,the modes of knowledge diffusion between the two types of enterprises in the global innovation network are explored.[Limitations]The parameter settings of the model are relatively simple,making it difficult to simulate complex enterprise network structures.[Results/Conclusions]Based on the established network model,it is analyzed that the modes of knowledge diffusion among enterprises in the global innovation network mainly include knowledge creation,collaborative innovation between knowledge-intensive enterprises,and knowledge diffusion between knowledge-intensive and labor-intensive enterprises which provides suggestions for knowledge management of the two types of enterprises.
