摘要：
Based on dynamic interactions between knowledge creation (KC) and resource mobilization (RM), we propose a new research method for a firm's R&D management using two indicators: transition of new product technologies for KC, and dynamic change in the number of inventors for RM. We apply the proposed method to the R&D competition between Canon's thermal inkjet (TIJ) and Seiko Epson's piezoelectric inkjet (PIJ) over three decades. The results suggest that a firm's KC direction is controlled by its technology selection, and its RM is influenced by the competitor's KC rather than its own KC. RM rate seems to reveal a firm's strategic position: "competition between technologies" or "habitat segregation of technologies."
