Das Innovationsverhalten Der Deutschen Softwareindustrie, Michael Friedewald, Knut Blind, Jakob Edler
Michael Friedewald
In this article we present the results of two empirical studies focusing on the structure and extent of the innovation activities of the German Software Industry and analyze distinctive features of Software Innovations. We distinguish the activities of the primary (core) Software Industry and secondary industries such as Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Motor Industry and Telecommunications. A special focus is put on the question if innovations in Software are sequential, on the role of Open Source Software and the importance of inter- operability.

The globalisation of industry and the strong depend- ence of the German machine manufacturers on export has increased the importance of an up-to-date and user-oriented product documentation not only as a cost factor but as a compe- tition factor of strategic importance as well. The use of Multi- media is a promising approach to realize such an improved documentation. This paper presents the results of a survey that was conducted among the manufacturers of machines and their customers to identify the user requirements for Multimedia Product Documentation. As a result of the analysis a number of success factors are identified. …
