How Far Should Theory be from Practice?
New countermeasures aiming at protecting against power analysis attacks are often proposed proving the security of the scheme given a specific leakage assumption. Besides the classical power models like Hamming weight or Hamming distance, newer schemes also focus on other dynamic power consumption like the one caused by glitches in the combinational circuits. The question arises if with the inc...
متن کاملOn Competitive Nonlinear Pricing∗
A buyer of a divisible good faces several identical sellers. The buyer’s preferences are her private information, and they may directly affect the sellers’ profits (common values). Sellers compete by posting menus of nonexclusive contracts, so that the buyer can simultaneously and privately trade with several sellers. We focus on the finitetype case, and we provide a full characterization of pu...
متن کاملINNOVATION, STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT AND ECONOMICS: HOW DOES ECONOMIC THEORY EXPLAIN INNOVATION WITHIN ENTERPRISES? by
Strategic management establishes an operational link between the enterprise's overall strategy and more specific aspects of management, such as human resources management (HRM). In a way, the strategic vision is an extension of the systemic vision, which included various elements but did not integrate them from the outset into the enterprise's overall strategy nor establish an operational link ...
متن کاملCompetitive Nonlinear Pricing and Bundling∗
We examine the impact of multiproduct nonlinear pricing on profit, consumer surplus and welfare in a duopoly. When consumers buy all their products from one firm (the one-stop shopping model), nonlinear pricing leads to higher profit and welfare, but usually lower consumer surplus, than linear pricing. By contrast, in a unit-demand model where consumers may buy one product from one firm and ano...
متن کاملDevelopmental systems theory: what does it explain, and how does it explain it?
We examine developmental systems theory (DST) with two questions in mind: What does DST explain? How does DST explain it? To answer these questions, we start by reviewing major contributions to the origins of DST: the introduction of the idea of a "developmental system", the idea of probabilistic epigenesis, the attention to the role of information in the developmental system, and finally the e...
