The Analysis Of Model And Stratagem In Irish Software Industry

Some multinational corporations started to promote their globalization service in American software industry since 1990s and the biggest barrier they met was the "localization" in the European market. The Irish government had made a series of the policy which inclined to the software industry and taken Ireland as "the platform" in the localization of American products, which not only met the need of the international market, but also gave Irish native software industry an opportunity to grow strong.Having limited the conception of software and software industry, the development pattern of software industry is limited clearly. The development pattern of software industry is decided by both interior and external essential factors in a country. Some essential factors, such as national economic basis, government policy, infrastructure, human resources, play the key role.Through the introduction of the present situation about Irish software industry, the paper has summarized the characteristic of Irish software industry and explained the origin of the "localization" pattern.

Therefore, It is necessary to study the successful factors of Irish software industry from three layers, which include governmental institution layer, industrial organization layer, and enterprise inner layer. Institution layer ranks to the macroscopic layer. Enterprise layer ranks to the microscopic layer. Organization layer ranks to the layer between the institution and the enterprise.Through SWOT analysis, which illustrates the strength, weakness, opportunity and threat, the paper summarizes the present situation of the stratagem in Irish software industry. Through elaborating the future stratagem, the paper summarizes the influence which the future stratagem attributes to the development pattern in Irish software industry.Through the discussing as above, the paper has elaborated the model significance that Chinese software industry can learn from Irish software industry.
