6,807 Citations2002Maurizio Zollo, Sidney G. Winter
The argument is made that dynamic capabilities are shaped by the coevolution of these learning mechanisms, and the relative effectiveness of these capability-building mechanisms is analyzed here as contingent upon selected features of the task to be learned, such as its frequency, homogeneity, and degree of causal ambiguity.
PaleobiologyPunctuated equilibria: the tempo and mode of evolution reconsidered
2,703 Citations1977Stephen Jay Gould, Niles Eldredge
It is argued that virtually none of the examples brought forward to refute the model of punctuated equilibria can stand as support for phyletic gradualism; many are so weak and ambiguous that they only reflect the persistent bias for gradualism still deeply embedded in paleontological thought.

452 Citations1998Daniel A. Levinthal
Using the punctuated equilibrium framework of evolutionary biology, it is argued that the critical event is not a transformation of the technology, but speciation--the application of existing technology to a new domain of application.
