This paper summarizes recent literature on virtual organizations, as well as Tec-Ed’s practical experience in managing project teams whose members are in different geographic locations, have different skills and responsibilities, and seldom meet face to face. It reviews how we share corporate culture, gain insight into clients, build trust, and develop the professional synergy that enables effi...

This paper uses high frequency data to evaluate whether information asymmetry in the market is reduced as a result of corporate earnings and dividend announcements. Changes in the level of information asymmetry due to the announcements are proxied by the rate of change in trading volume, bid-ask spread, cumulative abnormal returns, and order imbalance. Our results show support for an informatio...

This paper compares the performance of several machine learning algorithms for the automatic categorization of corporate announcements in the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) Signal G data stream. The article also describes some of the applications that the categorization of corporate announcements may enable. We have performed tests on two categorization tasks: market sensitivity, which indicat...

This project tries to predict the contents of corporate 8-K filings using Naive Bayes Assumption and Support Vector Machine. We manually classify the contents of 300 corporate 8-K filings as financial, operational, legal, administrative or HR, train the Naive Bayes Classifier and multi-class SVM based on this classification, and test their performances. Both techniques yield error rates as high...

The support vector machine (SVM) is a fast, and reliable machine learning mechanism. In this paper, we evaluated the stock price predictability of SVM, which is a kind of fundamental analysis that predicts the stock price from corporate intrinsic value. Corporate financial statements are used as input into SVM. Based on the results, we predicted the rise or drop of the stock. In addition, we ev...

Recent aggregate tests of the impact of taxes on long-run growth rates in OECD countries remain vulnerable to two criticisms. First, they typically use ‘an aggregate average rate, or constructed marginal rate, that probably does not affect the rate that any particular economic decision maker is facing’ (Myles, 2007, p.89). Second, despite increased testing of corporate tax effects, the models e...

Corporate documentation and publications should signal the company's key personality values. In this paper we show that the concept of Controlled Language may be extended to also cover Tone-of-Voice, and we see similarities and differences between Readability and Tone-of-Voice. %DFNJURXQGGDQGG3XUSRVH ,QWURGXFWLRQQ Many companies are realising the opportunities offered by language technology for...

In field studies designed to uncover opportunities for computationallyintensive business applications, we observed an interaction pattern we term "constellations" in which people depend on a variety of people and information sources to perform the duties of their employ. Constellations are significant for several reasons, constellations extensively cross organizational and corporate boundaries,...
