even if the information technology revolution has the potential to significantly raise the rate of growth of total factor productivity (TFP) in the long run,

moreover, assume that investments embodying information technology earn only a normal private rate of return and do not yield significantly higher social rates of return due to externalities and other spillover effects.

and the private rates of return on this the new information technology and all of its networked applications. 4 Economists'reactions to questions concerning the anomalous slowdown of TFP growth

and thereby help us to resolve the information technology paradox, would be some quantitative evidence that the suspected upward bias in the aggregate output deflators has been getting proportionally larger over time.

New information technologies, and improved access to marketing data are indeed enabling faster, less costly product innovation,

It also is the case that subsequent investigations along the same lines have found that there were additional intangible investments that were correlatives of high information technology-intensity.

and the market valuation of computer-intensive firms for concluding that the diffusion of information technologies among large business firms has entailed substantial levels of intangible asset formation. 23 The latter,

if firms are to effectively exploit the enhanced capabilities of new information technologies. Thus, the narrow scope of conventional output measures may persist for some time in failing to register the relative rise of this form of asset production,

it is puzzling why more conventional indices of productivity in branches of industry that previously were regarded not to be"unmeasurable"have not been affected more positively by the advent of new information technologies.

while others are part of the learning investments being made by firms in formal and informal on the job knowledge acquisition about information technology. 14 performance of microprocessor components and for many applications,

In any case, it is expected now that a modern organization will provide reasonably sophisticated information technology as part of the office equipment to which every employee is entitled.

Firstly, a growing range of information technologies has become available that are purpose-built and task-specific.
