To illustrate the relationship, it uses the Auerbach-KotlikofF Dynamic Life-Cycle Simulation Model to compare policyinduced changes in generational accounts with actual changes in generations' Utilities. The paper considers a wide ränge of policies in closed and small open economies as...

The aim of this paper is to evaluate the performance of the optimal policy (the Gittins index policy) for open tax problems of the type considered byKlimov in the undiscounted limit. In this limit, the state-dependent part of the cost is linear in the state occupation numbers for the multi-armed bandit, but is quadratic for the tax problem. The discussion of the passage to the limit for the tax...

Resequencing of customers during the service process results in hard to analyze delay distributions. A set of models with various service and resequencing policies have been analyzed already for memoryless arrival, service and resequencing processes with an intensive use of transform domain descriptions. In case of Markov modulated arrival, service and resequencing processes those methods are n...

Ciphertext-Policy Attribute-Based Encryption(CP-ABE) is a system for realizing complex access control on encrypted data, in which attributes are used to describe a user’s credentials and a party encrypting data determines a policy over attributes for who can decrypt. In CP-ABE schemes, access policy is attached to the ciphertext to be the input of the decryption algorithm. An access policy can ...
