Primes¶
- Increasing Returns
- … platform ecosystems where Rohlfs's (1974) original network-effect analysis applies (more users attract more developers attract more users), and an industrial economist studying Yelle's (1979) learning-curve regularity in chip fabrication can recognize each other's problems as variants of the same payoff structure.
This sourceComprehensive survey of empirical learning-curve effects across manufacturing and service industries, documenting the cumulative-experience channel of increasing returns and its log-linear regularity across substrates beyond aerospace.

- Learning Curve Effects
- The pattern reindexes performance away from calendar time or current throughput and onto a single accumulating quantity, then asserts a specific functional form (power law) relating that quantity to the cost, time, or error of the next unit.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 2 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
