Research On The Evolution Of R&D Industry System Based On Self-Organization Theory

Independent，internal R&D activities has been unable to meet the needs of socialdevelopment，R&D has become to an industry as the result of R&D’s externalizationand marketization. As a new industry, the evolution of R&D industryhas many similarities as well as differences with other industries, there are somedifficulties in research of R&D industry with mainstream economics. So we canresearch it with a new method which called self-organizing theory.As R&D industry Satisfy the basic criteria of self-organizing theoryopenness, non-balance, and non-linear function, the main body of R&D industry canmake dissipative (Input, cost, expense etc.) by itself, we call it as economicself-organizing. The Evolutional Mechanism of R&D industry system is the result ofinteraction by R&D main body, R&D demand, R&D supply, and industry service andmarket competition. R&D industry needs to go through four stages such asintroduction, growth, maturity and decline. There are three paths in the evolution ofR&D industry contains establish, discrete, transition. By result of co-evolution model,venture capital and market competitions were the dominant power of R&D industryevolution. Although venture capital is minimal in whole R&D input, it canpromote innovation orientation. Market competitions contribute to the evolution ofR&D industry by industry intern competition and relevant industries’ R&Doutsourcing.Chinese R&D industry is still in early stages, it has a large R&D input but poorfoundation and original patented inventions with low technology and low complexity.Based on the development of the R&D industry in China, this paper proposedsome corresponding countermeasures that create demand, increase supply,construction of industry services system and develop financing channel.
