Information Technology and the World Economy By Dale W. Jorgenson Harvard University June 7, 2005

Economic Growth in the Information Age INTRODUCTION: Prices of Information Technology THE INFORMATION AGE: Faster, Better, Cheaper! ROLE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY: IT Prices and the Cost of Capital AMERICAN GROWTH RESURGENCE: IT Investment and Productivity Growth ECONOMICS ON INTERNET TIME: The New Research Agenda

THE INFORMATION AGE: Faster, Better, Cheaper! MOORE'S LAW: The number of transistors on a chip doubles every months(Pentium 4, released November 20,2000, has 42 million transistors). MOORE (1998): "If the automobile industry advanced as rapidly as the semiconductor industry, a Rolls Royce would get half a million miles per gallon, and it would be cheaper to throw it away than to park it." INVENTION OF THE TRANSISTOR: Development of Semiconductor Technology. THE INTEGRATED CIRCUIT: Memory Chips; Logic Chips.

ECONOMICS ON INTERNET TIME: The New Research Agenda. Modeling IT and the semiconductor industry: permanent versus transitory contributions to economic growth. The Solow Paradox -- we see computers everywhere but in the productivity statistics -- versus the Information Age. Equity Valuations and Growth Prospects: accumulation of intangible assets versus irrational exuberance. Widening Wage Inequality:capital-skill complementarity versus skill-biased technical change.
