This essay analyzes the origins and dynamics of production networks in Silicon Valley from the perspective of the region's computer systems firms. Students of Silicon Valley have focused almost exclusively on the evolution of the semiconductor industry; when that industry fell into crisis in the mid-1980s, most assumed that the region itself would decline. Yet by the end of the decade, the regional economy had rebounded, as hundreds of new computer producers and suppliers of microprocessors, specialty chips, software, disk drives, networking hardware, and other components generated a renewed wave of growth.
