Summary and Conclusion: A Summary of the Contribution Made by the Hydrothermal Vent (HTV) Ecosystem Model in Providing a New Strategic Perspective.This book examines and critiques classical approaches to strategic analysis, whilst exploring alternative methods which utilise ecosystem and platform concepts, as well as chaos and complexity theories. The innovative study provides a critique of the neoclassical Newtonian school of strategy, and proves it to be largely inappropriate as a decision-making methodology in today’s internet-based market. By developing a new biological hydrothermal vent model in which analogical comparisons are made with the Information Communication Technology (ICT) sector, the chapters challenge existing paradigms of competitive advantage and analyse the extent to which the Internet can be considered to be an ecosystem in its own right. The Internet as a Technology-Based Eco-System offers a range of alternative models and analytical frameworks for the analysis of internet-based technology companies in the twenty-first century, creating a valuable tool for students and academics undertaking research in strategy, technology and electronic engineering.Internet marketingManagement information systemsIndustrial management—Environmental aspectsE-commerceBig dataOnline Marketing/Social Mediahttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/513010Business Information Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/522030Sustainability Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/515040e-Commerce/e-businesshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I26000Big Data/Analyticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/522070Internet marketing.Management information systems.Industrial management—Environmental aspects.E-commerce.Big data.Online Marketing/Social Media.Business Information Systems.Sustainability Management.e-Commerce/e-business.Big Data/Analytics.658.872Walton Nigelauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut953802BOOK9910254910203321The Internet as a Technology-Based Ecosystem2156569UNINA
