Flavopiridol, the first potent cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor to undergo clinical trials as an antineoplastic agent in the United States, has attracted considerable attention because of its unique cellular targets and its ability to kill noncycling tumor cells in vitro. To better understand how flavopiridol might be used clinically, the present study used colony-forming assays to examine the...

This study examines the determinants of information and communications technology (ICT) use and access of low-income people in three developing countries: Colombia, Mexico and Peru. We focus on cross-country differences and similarities in ICTs use across gender, age, education and income, using two composite indicators of ICT. The main similarity across the countries is that education is by fa...

The purpose of this paper is to investigate how different types of demand structure affect firms’ optimal pricing and private copy protection (DRM) level of digital products. We construct a model where the equilibrium prices and protection levels are dependent upon the two parameters: public copy protection of digital products and degree of compatibility of DRM in terms of hacking technology. W...

Open source software (OSS) is marked by free access to the software and its source code. OSS is developed by a ‘community’ consisting of thousands of contributors from all over the world. Some research was undertaken in order to analyze how global the OSS community actually is, i.e. analyze the geographic origin of OSS developers. But as members of the OSS community differ in their activity lev...

Using a unique dataset from a specialty online retailer, we are able to compare the effectiveness the of Amazon and eBay online reputation mechanisms. We develop a structural model of online order generation process, feedback generation process and price formation process. Results from our structural model suggest significant differences on how feedback affects total sales and how different typ...

This paper builds on Cremer, Rey and Tirole’s analysis of the possible incentives of a firm with the largest share of installed-base customers, in a market characterized by strong network externalities, to degrade or refuse interconnection with its smaller rivals in order to gain a relative quality advantage in competing for new customers. We extend their model to allow any number of smaller ri...

You’d Be Perfect for This:” Understanding the Value of Hiring through Referrals Employee referrals are a very common means by which firms hire new workers. Past work suggests that workers hired via referrals often perform better than non-referred workers, but we have little understanding as to why. In this paper, we demonstrate that this is primarily because referrals allow firms to select work...

The digitization of content has led to the emergence of platforms that draw information from multiple sources. Policymakers are concerned that these new platforms threaten incentives for the production of original content. As a result, policymakers are contemplating regulations that would force aggregation platforms to pay or require an explicit “opt-in” for content providers. To understand the...

This paper analyzes the micro-foundation for development of innovation capabilities in an open innovation context. To generate our results we employ an unbalanced panel of 2,598 Open Source Software developers working on projects hosted on the SourceForge online community over 28 months. We theorize how interaction in a self-organized community translates into individuals communicative behavior...
