New Industries from New Places : The Emergence of the Hardware and Software Industries in China and India - pocketboek

Could China and India come to dominate the world's technology industry by bringing together Chinese hardware and Indian software production? Much attention is being paid to the fact that Asia's giant neighbors--with more than a third of the planet's population and two of the fastest-growing economies in the world--are entering a new era of cooperation. By combining these two industries, some believe it will signify the coming of the Asian century of the information technology (IT) industry. This book represents the first rigorous comparison of China and India's new growth sectors. It compares the emergence of India and China as global leaders in hardware and software production as well as the growth performance of private enterprise in the IT manufacturing and IT services sectors in these two countries.
