The focus of this paper is on pre-competitive R&D cooperation across Europe, as captured by R&D joint ventures funded by the European Commission in the time period 1998-2002, within the 5th Framework Program. The cooperations in this Framework Program give rise to a bipartite network with 72,745...

The focus in this paper is on knowledge spillovers between high-technology firms in Europe, as captured by patent citations. High-technology is defined to include the ISIC-sectors aerospace (ISIC 3845), electronics-telecommunication (ISIC 3832), computers and office equipment (ISIC 3825), and...

An overarching concern in regional science is the characterization of interactions-such as commuter flows, transport, migration, or knowledge flows-within and between subnational spatial units. In this work, we use techniques from social network analysis to address the quality, rather than the...

Interactions between firms, universities, and research organizations are crucial for successful innovation in the modern knowledge-based economy. Systems of such interactions constitute R&D networks. R&D networks may be meaningful segmented using recent methods for identifying communities,...

This working paper reports the current stage of development of an agent-based model (ABM) of regional knowledge creation in Europe. Building on the scientific and conceptual foundations laid out before (see Duenser et al. 2017) the paper focuses on the specifications regarding model...
