We study the problem of Bayesian learning in a dynamical system involving strategic agents with asymmetric information. In a series of seminal papers in the literature, this problem has been studied under a simplifying model where selfish players appear sequentially and act once in the game, based on private noisy observations of the system state and public observation of past players’ actions....

The aim of this study was to determine the level and relationship between qualities of work life (QWL) with career-related variables. The sample consists of 475 executives from the electrical and electronics industry in the free trade zones in Malaysia for both the multinational corporations (MNCs) and the small-medium industries (SMIs). The selection of respondents using stratified random samp...

Affirmative answers are given to two questions of international politics: Do the parsimonious postulates of structure theory imply any mode of behavior for states, as claimed by the theory of neorealism? Does a principle of the harmony of interests exist for states, as asserted by idealist theories? Answers emanating from an n-person game theoretic model, which portrays states as security maxim...

“Man is not going to wait passively for millions of years before evolution offers him a better brain.” These words are attributed to the 20th century Romanian psychopharmacologist Corneliu Giurgea, an early advocate of cognitive enhancement—that is, the use of medications or other brain treatments for improving normal healthy cognition. Contemporary attempts at cognitive enhancement involve an ...

This article is about the author’s experience with developing and teaching an introductory electrical engineering course for students of Faculty (department) of Information Technology of a Russian university. The curriculum of this department conforms to typical computer science curricula of US engineering schools with a noticeable omission of comparable electrical engineering courses. When dev...
