- Open Platform Strategies and Innovation: Granting Access vs. Devolving Control (2010, background): “4 See, for example, Baldwin and Woodard (2009), Bresnahan”
- Let a Thousand Flowers Bloom? An Early Look at Large Numbers of Software App Developers and Patterns of Innovation (2012, positive): “This is an approach to system design that is explicitly intended to reduce development costs, speed product creation, reduce coordination costs and facilitate experimentation by enabling reuse of core design elements (Baldwin and Woodard 2009, Robertson and Ulrich 2005, Simpson et al. 2006).”
- Digital platform ecosystems (2019, background): “Each modular service is a software subsystem that can extend the functionality of the platform (Baldwin and Woodard 2009).”
- Digital Technologies as External Enablers of New Venture Creation in the IT Hardware Sector (2018, background): “For example, a stable set of inputs and outputs reduces coordination efforts, transaction costs (Baldwin & Woodard, 2009), and variations in quality, allowing digital technologies to channel resources more efficiently (Faraj, Jarvenpaa, & Majchrzak, 2011).”
- Digital platforms for development: Foundations and research agenda (2021, background): “It considers platforms as modular architectures (Ulrich, 1995), which are partitioned into a core and periphery (Baldwin & Woodard, 2009), and governed centrally by a platform authority (Ghazawneh & Henfridsson, 2013; Wareham et al., 2014).”
- The digital platform: a research agenda (2018, background): “Non-digital platforms Industrial innovation management scholars see platforms as a stable core and a variable periphery (Baldwin and Woodard, 2009).”
- Unpaid Crowd Complementors: The Platform Network Effect Mirage (2015, neutral): “Managing large numbers of complementors also requires modularized interfaces (Baldwin and Woodard, 2009) and some ability to govern complementor behavior productively (Boudreau and Hagiu, 2009).”
