| Tiivistelmä: | Strategies concerning centralized and decentralized commercial computing have been major issues for more than two decades. Using longitudinal sales data consolidated into three major computer categories (mainframes, minicomputers, and microcomputers), the authors investigate whether historical market data show evidence of centralization and decentralization. The authors' finding of cyclic behavior leads them to conclude that computing sales data exhibits broadly cyclic characteristics. |
