Common use of Research Question Clause in Contracts

Research Question. How does a distributed construct with opening and closing dynamics on different levels of analysis – Opening one dimension triggers value creation from opening the other dimension – Opening one dimension triggers value appropriation from closing the other dimension – Common resources develop through iterative forking and merging of options and micro- alliances of heterogeneous actors to deal with the contradiction by pursuing open and closed innovation at the same time – Combining temporal and spatial separation enables open and closed innovation to become mutually enabling – Alternating between forking and merging is a temporal separation strategy to organize and manage the centralized opening and closing dynamics influenced by value creation and appropriation opportunities – Combining open and closed innovation requires temporal and spatial separation – Unpacking contradictions of multiple types of dimensions adds to understanding how to organize and manage them – Contradictions play out differently on various levels of analysis arguing for a dialectical perspective of open innovation – Micro-alliances accommodate the differences and dependencies between heterogeneous actors when boundary objects are developing – Micro-alliances reflect the heterogeneity – Further develop dynamic open innovation building on contradictions literature – Further studying collaboration and innovation in settings with open knowledge flows and system architectures – Further study the development process of common resources and applicability of micro-alliances in complex and extreme settings – Develop technical and organizational common resources – Do not formalize collaboration of – Micro-alliances enable finding versus decentralized control inside seemingly single-minder collaborations – Study material influences of but let micro- organizations with agreement without involving all actors contradiction – Forking of options and micro- – Micro-alliances explain organizing in settings where hierarchy is not feasible options in development digital infrastructures alliances emerge heterogeneous – Alternating between forking and alliances is a spatial separation – Divergence in collaborations is not necessarily – A study of options and micro- backgrounds and interests develop an merging accommodates differences and dependencies between heterogeneous actors strategy to organize and manage the centralized versus decentralized control an indication of failure to cooperate – Interdependencies between technical and organizational resources explain progress alliances using social network analysis techniques building on actor network theory infrastructure of – Interdependencies explain contradiction through dissensus common resources?
