Non-walrasian Equilibrium: Illustrative Examples

Fuzzy concepts and formal methods: some illustrative examples

It has been recognised that formal methods are useful as a modelling tool in requirements engineering. Speci cation languages such as Z permit the precise and unambiguous modelling of system properties and behaviour. However some system problems, particularly those drawn from the IS problem domain, may be di cult to model in crisp or precise terms. It may also be desirable that formal modelling...

Lmis and Polynomial Methods in Control: Illustrative Examples

Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs) are now widely used as a convenient tool for solving a signiicant number of control problems. Probably for historical reasons, LMIs have mainly been used conjointly with state-space methods. Several recent works however tend to prove that polynomial (or algebraic) methods can also rely on LMIs. With the help of simple illustrative examples, the purpose of this ...

Research and Pedagogy in Business Analytics: Opportunities and Illustrative Examples

In recent times, business analytics and big data have gainedmomentumboth in industry practice and academic research. The objective of this paper is to provide both a research and teaching introduction to business analytics in the context of both current and prospective perspective of the business analytics domain. It begins by providing a quick overview of the three types of analytics. To assis...

Assessing vulnerability to poverty: concepts, empirical methods and illustrative examples

A household’s observed poverty level is an ex-post measure of a household’s well-being (or lack thereof). But poverty is a stochastic phenomenon and the current poverty level of a household, may not necessarily be a good guide to the household’s expected poverty in the future. For thinking about appropriate forward-looking anti-poverty interventions (i.e., interventions that aim to go beyond th...
