Tiivistelmä: | In this study, the two models are first reconstructed using a common language for the coding. The results of the simulations are made visual on the screen by means of a cellular automaton that represents the diffusion of different technologies in terms of different colors. By using a single platform for the interpretation, one can specify the conditions under which the models compete for the explanation. Second, the paper addresses the question of how one model interacts with the other. The reduction of the complexity in the coding enables us to focus on the theoretical assumptions. The introduction of a Schumpeterian dynamics of 'creative destruction', for example, can be shown to introduce variation in 'rugged fitness landscapes'. |
