      abstract = {Digital software platforms such as iOS or Android evolve  quickly. Through regular updates, their set of built-in  (core) features increases. While innovation allows  strengthening platforms amidst competition, it can hurt  contributors when introducing core features that are  already provided by third-party developers (Platform  Coring). This book addresses the underexplored phenomenon  of Platform Coring and provides strategical guidance for  platform owners and third-party contributors. Platform  owners are well-advised to carefully consider the benefits  and risks for their platform ecosystem. The book  contributes by highlighting avenues to employ Platform  Coring for the competitive advantage of the platform and  ecosystem simultaneously. About the author Benedict Bender  conducts research on digital platforms and business  ecosystems. The strategic design of platforms to motivate  participants to contribute is a major challenge and subject  of his research. He also deals with innovative business  models, Industry 4.0, and IT security and privacy. He  studied Information Systems at the University of Potsdam,  the Humboldt Universität zu Berlin, and the University of  St. Gallen.},
