Understanding Economic Growth
Modern economies have undergone a dramatic change. There has been a shift from large scale material manufacturing to the design and application of new technology with R&D and human capital. The new information age has introduced significant productivity gains through increasing returns and learning by doing, which has challenged the traditional growth models based on competitive market structures. Institutions outside the traditional markets and the genetic principle of survival of the fittest have dominated the current theory of industry growth. This book coordinates and integrates the two strands of economic growth and development: the endogenous theory of growth and the extra-market models of evolutionary economics dominated by innovation efficiency. It presents this new paradigm in terms of both theory and historical experiences. The book addresses the role of innovations and human capital, the impact of information technology, the role of institutions as mechanisms of evolutionary economies and the experiences of Asian growth miracles, and will be of interest to readers in economics and political science concerned with economic growth and development.
Dynamics of Entry and Market Evolution
This book discusses both competitive and game theory models of industry growth through new technology, innovations and new entry, and provides a comprehensive treatment of various dynamic models of entry, applications of efficiency and entry models in computers and the pharmaceuticals industry, and applied models of Differential Games.
India's Economic Growth
This book examines new policies for accelerating India's economic growth. This book discusses a set of dynamic strategies for growth, emphasizing the dynamic role of information technology and the New Economy. These show how new growth and the historical experiences of fast-growing Asian countries can be utilised for a new growth paradigm in India.
Data Envelopment Analysis: Theory, Methodology, and Applications
This book represents a milestone in the progression of Data Envelop ment Analysis (DEA). It is the first reference text which includes a comprehensive review and comparative discussion of the basic DEA models. The development is anchored in a unified mathematical and graphical treatment and includes the most important modeling ex tensions. In addition, this is the first book that addresses the actual process of conducting DEA analyses including combining DEA and 1 parametric techniques. The book has three other distinctive features. It traces the applications driven evolution and diffusion of DEA models and extensions across disciplinary boundaries. It includes a comprehensive bibliography t...
Theory of Innovation
The current economic theory of innovation mainly analyses the technology factor and its impact on economic growth. In today's world, growth in information technology and knowledge of new ideas has altered the business paradigm dramatically. Modern economies have undergone a dynamic shift from material manufacturing to a new information technology model with research and development (R&D) and human capital. Through information and communications technology efficient information usage has achieved substantial productivity gains through learning by doing and incremental innovations. The present volume discusses this new paradigm in terms of both theory and industry applications, including Schum...
Technology, Innovations and Growth
This book provides detailed empirical analysis of countries in Asia to examine various dynamic models that incorporate the impact of technology and innovations on the industry evolution and overall economic growth.
Efficiency Models in Data Envelopment Analysis
This volume discusses the latest techniques and their economic applications for modern industries like computer, pharmaceutical, banking and other manufacturing. Both econometric and mathematical programming techniques are analyzed so as to develop a synthetic approach.
New Growth Theory
Attempts to explain the process of long-run economic growth through endogenous forces such as human capital, knowledge spillover, and information technology. Reviews economic issues in new growth theory, and discusses its empirical evidence and usefulness in national policy making. Analyzes the dynamic and disequilibrium models as applied to recent international growth and discusses their policy implications, and empirically illustrates the various phases of growth in technology-intensive sectors such as flexible manufacturing and the semiconductor and telecommunications industries.

Competition and Growth
Jati K. Sengupta examines the market dynamics of the evolution of industry and the impact of new technology with R&D and knowledge capital. The book builds the theory of innovations in the contexts of the high-tech industries of today such as computing and telecommunications.
New Efficiency Theory
New efficiency theory refers to the various parametric and semi-parametric methods of estimating production and cost frontiers, which include data envelopment analysis (DEA) with its diverse applications in management science and operations research. This monograph develops and generalizes the new efficiency theory by highlighting the interface between economic theory and operations research. Some of the outstanding features of this monograph are: (1) integrating the theory of firm efficiency and industry equilibrium, (2) emphasizing growth efficiency in a dynamic setting, (3) incorporating uncertainty of market demand and prices, and (4) the implications of group efficiency by sharing investments. Applications discuss in some detail the growth and decline of the US computer industry, and the relative performance of mutual fund portfolios.
