The Disease Control Priorities program (DCP) has pioneered the use of economic evidence in health. The theory of change (ToC) put forward by Norheim is a further welcome and necessary step towards translating DCP evidence into better priority setting in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). We also agree that institutionalising evidence for informed priority-setting processes is crucial. Un...

plotinus' attempt to counter the aristotle critiques on plato's theory of ideas, leads to his theory of emanation, which is called double act doctrine. plotinus is influenced by aristotle, not only in raising the problem of emanation quality, but the language and terms (including reasonable matter, indefinite dyad and activity) that are used to describe his theory. also, the theory of...

Following Micali and Valiant [MV07.a], a mechanism is resilient if it achieves its objective without any problem of (1) equilibrium selection and (2) player collusion. To advance resilient mechanism design, • We put forward a new meaningful benchmark for the combined social welfare-revenue performance of any mechanism in truly combinatorial auctions. • We put forward a new notion of implementat...

We present a new approach to runtime verification that utilizes classical statistical techniques such as Monte Carlo simulation, hypothesis testing, and confidence interval estimation. Our algorithm, MCM, uses sampling-policy automata to vary its sampling rate dynamically as a function of the current confidence it has in the correctness of the deployed system. We implemented MCM within the Aris...

Glenn lightheartedly routed the question to the Google guys to put forward their demands and requirements to the academics, with reference to the panel discuss...
