Understanding Perpetual R&D Races
This paper presents an experimental study of dynamic indefinite horizon R&D races with uncertainty and multiple prizes. The theoretical predictions are highly sensitive: small parameter changes determine whether technological competition is sustained, or converges into a market structure with an entrenched leadership and lower aggregate R&D. The subjects’ strategies are far less sensitive. In m...
متن کاملUnderstanding Data Races in MySQL
Data races are notorious for their close relationship to many painful concurrency bugs that are very difficult to locate. On the other hand, it is both impossible and unnecessary to forbid every data race in large software systems, by locking every shared variable. It is impossible since we cannot afford for the performance deterioration by locking everything. It is unnecessary since most of th...
متن کاملHuman Races: Classifying People vs Understanding Diversity
The idea that all humans naturally belong to one of a few biological types or races that evolved in isolation was unchallenged for centuries, but large-scale modern studies failed to associate racial labels with recognizable genetic clusters. Recently, the conclusions of those studies have been questioned by authors who argue that racial classification has objective scientific bases and is indi...
متن کاملArms Races and Car Races
Evolutionary car racing (ECR) is extended to the case of two cars racing on the same track. A sensor representation is devised, and various methods of evolving car controllers for competitive racing are explored. ECR can be combined with co-evolution in a wide variety of ways, and one aspect which is explored here is the relative-absolute fitness continuum. Systematical behavioural differences ...
متن کاملRD-flatness and RD-injectivity
It is proved that every commutative ring whose RD-injective modules are Σ-RD-injective is the product of a pure semi-simple ring and a finite ring. A complete characterization of commutative rings for which each artinian (respectively simple) module is RD-injective, is given. These results can be obtained by using the properties of RD-flat modules and RD-coflat modules which are respectively th...
