Standards competition is a complicated process influenced by a large number of factors and mechanisms. This article develops a simulation model that draws on current theory of standards competition dynamics and represents the interplay of strategic factors that firms can use to gain a competitive advantage. The model is used to reproduce four published cases of standards competition and explore alternative outcomes. Simulation results align with the published cases and show that the competition outcome arises from the systemic effect of all the factors identified in the original studies. Further simulation tests explore under which conditions competition outcomes could have been different. The model, thus, provides a basis for further theoretical and empirical work on strategic aspects of standards competition in the respective industries of the cases.

标准竞争的系统动力学模型

标准竞争是一个受多种因素和机制影响的复杂过程。本文开发了一个模拟模型，该模型借鉴了当前的标准竞争动态理论，并代表了公司可以用来获得竞争优势的战略因素的相互作用。该模型用于重现四个已发布的标准竞争案例并探索替代结果。模拟结果与已发表的案例一致，并表明竞争结果来自原始研究中确定的所有因素的系统性影响。进一步的模拟测试探索在哪些条件下比赛结果可能会有所不同。该模型，因此，
