Parametric Estimation in a Recurrent Competing Risks Model
A resource-efficient approach to making inferences about the distributional properties of the failure times in a competing risks setting is presented. Efficiency is gained by observing recurrences of the compet- ing risks over a random monitoring period. The resulting model is called the recurrent competing risks model (RCRM) and is coupled with two repair strategies whenever the system fails. ...
متن کاملCybermediaries Supporting the Management of Independent Workers: A Case Study of Extended Out ̃sourc ̃ing Relationships
Outsourcing of human resource management tasks has a comparatively long tradition. This paper discusses the influences of the Internet on the value chain in managing independent workers (“freelancers”) in the IT area. A case study is presented and the influence of new, web-based intermediaries on restructuring the value chain is exemplified. The case demonstrates the shift of power from traditi...
متن کاملIntermediaries and Cybermediaries: A Continuing Role for Mediating Players in the Electronic Marketplace
The advent of nearly ubiquitous information infrastructures has led many to predict that one effect of electronic markets will be the bypassing of intermediaries in electronic markets. The ability of electronic networks to reduce transaction costs is the theoretical cause of this supposed trend. We suggest that, on the contrary, not only is it likely that widely available information infrastruc...
متن کاملCompeting interests
Combining rabies-virus tracing, optical clearing (CLARITY), and whole-brain light-sheet imaging, we mapped the monosynaptic inputs to midbrain dopamine neurons projecting to different targets (different parts of the striatum, cortex, amygdala, etc.) in mice. We found that most populations of dopamine neurons receive a similar set of inputs rather than forming strong reciprocal connections with ...
متن کاملCompeting Mechanisms
The recent literature on competing mechanisms has devoted a lot of effort at understanding a very complex and abstract issue. In particular, an agent’s type in a competitive environment is hard to conceptualize because it depends on information the agent has about what is going on in the rest of the market. This paper explains why this is such an important practical problem and illustrates how ...
