Sammendrag
This paper proposes a new methodology for computational strategic search processes. The value of a fitness landscape location is represented by the height of a PR landscape, where P is the number of peaks and R is the ruggedness or narrowness of the peaks on the landscape. The height of the landscape may denote firm performance, product potential, competitiveness, survival prospects, or any other outcome of strategic interest. The PR landscape approach is seen as an alternative to using an NK landscape because it is a continuous surface that can be visualized in three dimensions. We suggest that the PR landscape provides a more appealing way to model and interpret a firm's movement as it engages in strategic search.
