Abstract

Doing research is a costly and time consuming activity with uncertain return on investment. For small or independent studios without substantial financial backing it can be hard to motivate engaging in research. Today few game studios have dedicated research personnel, even among AAA. Most games are produced either with an off-the-shelf licensed game engine, or a publisher provided engine. Research is mostly done in response to pressing needs where no published algorithms or off-the-shelf solutions are readily available, or done haphazardly by individuals as part of regular day-to-day development.

Does director interlock impact corporate R&D investment?

This paper investigates the effect of director interlock on corporate research & development (R&D) investment from the perspective of inter-organizational imitation. We argue that managers will imitate the R&D investment intensity of their interlocked-...
R&D Equilibrium Strategies with Surfers

A typical assumption in the game-theoretic literature on research and development (R&D) is that all firms belonging to the industry under investigation pursue R&D activities. In this paper, we assume that the industry is composed of two groups; the ...
