Fig 1: The Abernathy-Utterback curve represents the innovation pipeline in this case as it transitions through the production of two consecutive stable products. It has three phases: 1) the Fluid Phase, where flexibility is needed because of uncertainty in the product idea, the technology and the market and in this case, the needs of the research community; 2) the Transitional Phase, when the technology, the application and the customer’s needs are better understood until a ‘dominant design’ emerges; 3,) the Specific Phase the ‘dominant design’ shifts from being different to having good performance
