چکیده

Innovation is a distributed process that involves the collective efforts and the interaction of heterogeneous organisations. Each of those actors is specialised in specific activities, technologies and knowledge and innovation is the result of the combination and integration of their activities. Coordination is a key determinant for the viability of distributed innovation in that it stimulates complementarities across otherwise dispersed competences. This paper argues that technological platforms are innovation infrastructures that foster the kind of cooperation that is at the core of collective innovation. Being placed strategically within innovation systems, platforms enable capacityand capability-building for individuals, teams and organisations. Evidence on the implementation of platforms in two sectors in the United Kingdom and Italy confirms the centrality of this type of institutional responsiveness for the effective integration of individual activities towards collective innovation.

Basic results on distributed order fractional hybrid differential equations with linear perturbations

In this article, we develop the distributed order fractional hybrid differential equations (DOFHDEs) with linear perturbations involving the fractional Riemann-Liouville derivative of order $0 < q < 1$ with respect to a nonnegative density function. Furthermore, an existence theorem for the fractional hybrid differential equations of distributed order is proved under the mixed $varphi$-Lipschit...
