Resumen:Objetivo: Analizar los artículos sobre usabilidad publicados durante el periodo 1971-2005 desde el punto de vista bibliométrico. Material y Métodos: Para obtener los trabajos se interrogaron las bases de datos del CSIC, Social Science Citation Index, Science Citation Index, PsycInfo, MEDLINE e Inspec mediante estrategias de búsqueda diseñadas ad hoc para cada base de datos. Se calcularon los índices de aporte, aporte específi co y solapamiento y los indicadores de evolución de la productividad científi ca, productividad de las instituciones de trabajo y de las revistas, y distribución de las revistas por área de conocimiento. Resultados: Se ha observado un crecimiento exponencial de los artículos publicados, más acusado en el último quinquenio. Las instituciones más productivas son fundamentalmente universitarias y estadounidenses y las revistas más productivas pertenecen al campo de la informática, ingeniería y psicología. Conclusiones: en la actualidad existe una incógnita sobre la consideración de la usabilidad como ciencia o disciplina científi ca, ya que no cuenta con un currí-culo formativo acorde, ni un perfi l profesional determinado, ni un área específi ca de conocimiento en la que se pueda englobar.

“…However, despite some pockets of innovation, the level of development in the sector remains below European countries. Rojo and G omez (2006) concluded that the low number of patents and the low production in international publications, is an indicator of insufficient absorptive capacity and low maturity in the Spanish ICT sector. Others have also described the unimpressive development of the sector, and its small capital stock (Gorriti and Ruiz, 2005;Ontiveros et al, 2004;Núñez, 2001;Banegas, 2003;Bayo-Moriones, and Lera-L opez, 2007).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyze the characteristics of knowledge creation in a key technology field, i.e. information and communication technology (ICT), to determine whether it is driven by domestic firms and inventors, or whether the traction is provided by international connections to global innovation networks. The authors argue that the geographical pattern of international connectivity is characterized by local concentration and strong connections to foreign multinational enterprises, for which a large number of inventors in Spain work. Design/methodology/approach The analysis was done using data from the United States Patent and Trademark Office database, covering almost 40 years, ranging from 1976 to 2014. The authors used patents in the ICT sector connected to either inventors or organizations located in Spain. The authors analyzed collaboration by the location of both inventors and assignees, and the connections established across borders. Second, the authors assessed the level of concentration and dispersion that characterizes these relationships. Findings First, the growth of the ICT sector in Spain is strongly driven by linkages with foreign companies, in particular those located in the USA. Second, the interaction of local and international clusters of knowledge generation is a key driver of the ICT sector, which is far from being global. Third, there is a geographic concentration of national/international knowledge sources, which is mediated by the technological strategies of internationalized firms. Therefore, the new information age seems to be highly dependent on the collaboration between individuals and companies through focal local points, and on the prevalence of co-developed international inventions. Research limitations/implications Understanding the patterns of ICT-related knowledge creation and its geographical footprint is crucial to foster competitiveness in the digital age. The transition from a paradigm based on tangible assets to one where competitive advantage stems mainly from intangibles, has significant implications for both policy and practice. International collaboration presents opportunities to enhance competitiveness at various levels, be that organizations, regions or countries. To seize these opportunities, it is key to enhance the endogenous capabilities and absorptive capacity of the local players. While patent data captures the output of a national innovation system only partially, it is still a suitable indicator to capture international connectedness. More qualitative-oriented techniques, however, may allow for a better assessment of tacit knowledge flows. Originality/value The creation of knowledge in high-tech industries is a key aspect of competitiveness, and it is increasingly supported by collaboration that spans across borders. However, knowledge creation adopts different patterns, depending on the unique characteristics of the country. The authors analyze the case of Spain, a developed economy with pockets of innovation but also significant areas that can be considered “peripheral,” both economically and industrially, when compared to much of Western Europe. This study’s analysis captures the combination of concentration and dispersion in the process of knowledge generation that characterizes the ICT sector in intermediate countries.

La apertura de las fronteras organizacionales para obtener ideas o generar mecanismos alternativos de salida al mercado permite identificar nuevos elementos en la gestión de la innovación. En este trabajo se plantea cómo, a partir de la liberalización del sector de las Tecnologías de la Información y de las Comunicaciones (TIC) en España, las empresas adoptan modelos que motivan la incorporación de conocimientos y agentes externos. La aportación de este artículo es la identificación de los elementos que se relacionan con el establecimiento de acuerdos de colaboración en innovación mediante el análisis de la información contenida en patentes.
