LEITE FILHO, Geraldo Alemandro  and  ANTONIALLI, Luiz Marcelo. Proposed classification of industrial Clusters by indicators of identification: a multivariate study. Interações (Campo Grande) [online]. 2011, vol.12, n.1, pp. 53-64. ISSN 1518-7012.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1518-70122011000100006.

The main objective of this study was to classify industrial Clusters based on indicators of identification at three levels, namely: 1) Beginners industrial Clusters, 2) Developing industrial Clusters, consolidated or developed industrial Clusters. It was concluded that the initial and development clusters would have a meaningful participation in local development and proposed that the characterization was more effective than the traditional identification.
