"An analysis of organizing process of R&D projects:

Multi-agent simulation and case study," pp. 9-20

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the organizing process of

research projects, which affect the performance of research and

development (R&D) crucially, by using agent-based simulation and

case study. We develop a multi-agent simulation model that contains

two types of R&D style: Japanese pharmaceutical companies’ style and

Merck’s style. Simulation result proves that the senior managers

observed in Merck possessing strong communication capabilities, whom

we call “HWCM (Heavy-Weight Communication Manager)” in this paper,

enhance initial start-up of projects. Furthermore, we study the case

of Merck again and try to show the effect of HWCM on high R&D

performance of Merck.

Keyword: R&D, multi-agent simulation, HWCM
