Abstract

Technology standard and technology innovation are the core factors affecting market competition. Technology standardization plays an important role in promoting competitive advantages and improving industrial innovation system. It is the key that helps to build standard systems and making industrial policy. Standards have played an important role in the evolution of information and communication technology. By analyzing the synergistic mechanism and exterior factors, this paper proposes a new conceptual model consisted of a relative motion model of technology standard and technology innovation, and a volatility model of technology standardization and industrial technology innovation. Based on the analysis, this paper argues that high quality technology innovation can promote technology standard and high-level technology standard that is widely implemented can boost technology innovation. The analysis also shows that there exist cooperative effects between technology standardization and industrial technology innovation.
