Fair sharing of bandwidth in distributed systems is considered. The inherently contentionbased medium access in distributed systems is modelled as a non-cooperative game: “Access Game”. It is shown that the Nash Equilibrium (NE) for incomplete information games is usually inefficient compared to the NE of complete information games. Consequently, simple mechanisms to approximate an incomplete i...

We investigate how redistribution of income is affected by the fact that income is privately observed and agents may not be truthful in their reports to the tax authorities. In response, the government establishes an audit mechanism with penalties. Adhering to a signaling equilibrium concept, we prove that agents resort to mixed strategies, which makes it difficult for tax authorities to identi...

the acid-base equilibrium of lorazepam was studied by means of potentiometry andmultiwavelengths spectrophotometry. the stoichiometric equilibrium constants were determinedat 25 °c and constant ionic strength 0.1 mol l-1 (nacl). the acidity constants pk1=1.58±0.05and pk2=11.67±0.07 were found by potentiometry, and pk1=1.54±0.02 and pk2=11.61±0.03 bymulti-wavelengths spectrophotometry. potentiom...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa has gained interest as a redox mediator (phenazines) producer in bioelectrochemical systems. Several biotic and abiotic factors influence the production of phenazines in synergy with the central virulence factors production regulation. It is, however, not clear how the electrochemical environment may influence the production and usage of phenazines by P. aeruginosa. We he...

abstract today, debt stabilization in an uncertain environment is an important issue. in particular, the question how fiscal and monetary authorities should deal with this uncertainty is of much importance. especially for some developing countries such as iran, in which on average 60 percent of government revenues comes from oil, and consequently uncertainty about oil prices has a large effect ...
