According to Network Effect literature network ex- ternalities lead to market failure due to Pareto-inferior coordina- tion results. We show that the assumptions and simplifications implicitly used for modeling standardization processes fail to explain the real-world variety of diffusion courses in today's dynamic IT markets and derive requirements for a more gen- eral model of network effects. We argue that Agent-based Com- putational Economics provides a solid basis for meeting these requirements by integrating evolutionary models from Game Theory and Institutional Economics. |
