Mechanism Design and Its Application in Management Science

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: I utilize a mechanism design framework to show that the current most popular practice in the timeshare exchange industry can be greatly improved without a tremendous change in their fundamental systems. By focusing on the ten-billion dollar timeshare industry and proposing a superior mechanism to improve its operation, the research has significant substantive implications. At the same time, from the theoretical perspective, the research extends the literature on one-sided matching to cases where supply of resources is dynamic and resources can be stored.I also study the theoretical relationship between two important matching mechanisms: Top Trading Cycles (TTC) mechanism and Top Trading Cycles and Chains (TTCC) mechanism. I show that given a specific chain selection rule of TTCC, it can be reduced to TTC. However, this applies to only one special case and do not generalize to cases where other types of chain selection rules are used.Given the obvious link between the mechanism design… [detailed...]

Mechanism Design with Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 4.0

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Mechanism Design with Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 4.0 is designed to help you become familiar with Mechanism Design, a module in the Pro/ENGINEER software family, which supports modeling and analysis (or simulation) of mechanisms in a virtual (computer) environment. The book is written following a project-based learning approach and is intentionally kept simple to help you learn Mechanism Design. The book covers most of the major concepts and frequently used commands required to advance readers from a novice to an intermediate level. Basic concepts discussed include: model creation, such as body and joint definitions, analysis type selection, such as static (assembly) analysis, kinematics and dynamics, and results visualization. The concepts are introduced using simple, yet realistic, examples. Verifying the results obtained from computer simulation is extremely important. One of the unique features of this textbook is the incorporation of theoretical discussions for kinematic and… [detailed...]

Mechanisms of Cortical Development

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This is the first book that attempts to bring together what is known about the fundamental mechanisms that underlie the development of the cortex in mammals. Ranging from the emergence of the forebrain from the neural plate to the functioning adult form, the authors draw on evidence from several species to provide a detailed description of processes at each stage. Where appropriate, evidence is extrapolated from non-mammalian species to generate hypotheses about mammalian development. In contrast to other texts of developmental biology, Mechanisms of Cortical Development integrates information on regulatory processes at the levels of molecules, cells and metworks. The authors draw together an extensive literature on cellular development and structural morphology, biochemical and genetic events and hypotheses that have been subject to mathematical modelling. Important metholdogies, such as transgenics and formal modelling, are explained for the non-specialist. Major future… [detailed...]

Mechanisms of Implicit Learning: Connectionist Models of Sequence Processing

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: What do people learn when they do not know that they are learning? Until recently all of the work in the area of implicit learning focused on empirical questions and methods. In this book, Axel Cleeremans explores unintentional learning from an information-processing perspective. He introduces a theoretical framework that unifies existing data and models on implicit learning, along with a detailed computational model of human performance in sequence-learning situations. The model, based on asimple recurrent network (SRN), is able to predict perfectly the successive elements of sequences generated from finite-state, grammars. Human subjects are shown to exhibit a similar sensitivity to the temporal structure in a series of choice reaction time experiments of increasing complexity, yet their explicit knowledge of the sequence remains limited. Simulation experiments indicate that the SRN model is able to account for these data in great detail. Cleeremans` model… [detailed...]

Mechanizing Proof: Computing, Risk, and Trust (Inside Technology)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Most aspects of our private and social lives?-our safety, the integrity of the financial system, the functioning of utilities and other services, and national security--now depend on computing. But how can we know that this computing is trustworthy? In Mechanizing Proof , Donald MacKenzie addresses this key issue by investigating the interrelations of computing, risk, and mathematical proof over the last half century from the perspectives of history and sociology. His discussion draws on the technical literature of computer science and artificial intelligence and on extensive interviews with participants. MacKenzie argues that our culture now contains two ideals of proof: proof as traditionally conducted by human mathematicians, and formal, mechanized proof. He describes the systems constructed by those committed to the latter ideal and the many questions those systems raise about the nature of proof. He looks at the primary social influence on the development of… [detailed...]

Mechanosensitivity in Cells and Tissues

2005 y.
Publisher: Академия
Description: International scientists have come together to create a book on mechanosensitivity in cells and tissues. Mechanosensitivity, i.e. the specific response to mechanical stimulation, is common to a wide variety of cells in many different organisms ranging from bacteria to mammals. Mechanical stress can modulate physiological processes at the molecular, cellular, and systemic level. The primary target for mechanical stimulation is the plasma membrane of the cell, which can respond to variable physical stress with changes of the open probability of mechanosensitive ion channels. Thus, acting on ion channels in the plasma membrane, mechanical stress can elicit a multitude of biochemical processes inside a cell, both transient and long-lasting. This may ultimately influence the function of tissues and organs in health and disease. Several stretch-induced signaling cascades have been described with multiple levels of crosstalk between the different pathways. Increased sensitivity of the cells… [detailed...]

Meddling with Memories: The Writings of June Rose

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The stories, essays, and poems of June Rose speak not only of time gone by, but of a contemporary woman giving us personal glimpses of her rich and grateful journey. Born in 1917, June`s early years on a rural Wisconsin farm gave her the outlook that shaped later life as a Navy wife, Mother of four, founder of a best selling cook-book, and advocate for the blind through Braille transcription. In her first writings June tells of rural life: the sometimes isolation, and the joy taken in small things. Farm and family could be an entire universe in a way that may be difficult to imagine today. Living through the Great Depression, she never spent much time missing what she didn`t have. As June Rose chronicles her history and journey from country life to a small town and beyond, her core values sustain her through the challenges that always come wherever one may be planted. June says: `I write so that my children won`t need to try to solve puzzles that have no clues.` [detailed...]

Media Argumentation: Dialectic, Persuasion, and Rhetoric

2007 y.
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Description: Media argumentation is a powerful force in our lives. From political speeches to television commercials to war propaganda, it can effectively mobilize political action, influence the public, and market products. This book presents a new and systematic way of thinking about the influence of mass media in our lives, showing the intersection of media sources with argumentation theory, informal logic, computational theory, and theories of persuasion. Using a variety of case studies that represent arguments that typically occur in the mass media, Douglas Walton demonstrates how tools recently developed in argumentation theory can be usefully applied to the identification, analysis, and evaluation of media arguments. He draws on the most recent developments in artificial intelligence, including dialogical theories of argument, which he developed, as well as speech act theory. Walton provides a structural analysis not only of individual types of argument commonly employed in the mass media,… [detailed...]

Description: In Media Ecologies , Matthew Fuller asks what happens when media systems interact. Complex objects such as media systems --understood here as processes, or elements in a composition as much as `things` -- have become informational as much as physical, but without losing any of their fundamental materiality. Fuller looks at this multiplicitous materiality -- how it can be sensed, made use of, and how it makes other possibilities tangible. He investigates the ways the different qualities in media systems can be said to mix and interrelate, and, as he writes, `to produce patterns, dangers, and potentials.` Fuller draws on texts by Felix Guattari and Gilles Deleuze as well as writings by Friedrich Nietzsche, Marshall McLuhan, Donna Haraway, Friedrich Kittler, and others, to define and extend the idea of `media ecology.` Arguing that the only way to find out about what happens when media systems interact is to carry out such interactions, Fuller traces a series of media… [detailed...]
