Having discussed the manpower capital theory, this paper discusses the characteristic of the software industry based on the analysis it. The mechanism of encouraging innovation determines the vigor of the software enterprises and the global competitiveness of software industry of one country. Chapter two describes the development situation of software industry in India and China.
