Critical technologies including artificial intelligence, semiconductors and quantum computing are attracting attention because of their indispensable nature and their role in national security strategies. We compare China, the United States and the European Union in these technologies and their...

The rapid development of multimedia technology has brought great changes to people's lives and production. Computer viruses also spread widely through the network. In order to solve the above problems, this article intends to use multimedia technology to control computer viruses, and proposes a...

With rising wages and increasing maturity of computer technology, computer use in the workplace is becoming increasingly common. Based on data from an urban labor survey, 58 percent of urban workers used computers at work in 2016. Using computer price and density as instrumental variables, we...

The recent arrival of an innovation supercluster of digital business technologies (web3/ industry 4.0, etc) is driving a deep, global institutional transformation from industrial to digital economies. A digital economy is a new type of economy that is qualitatively different because it is far...

Real-world applications of quantum computers and machine intelligence explores practical examples in quantum computing and machine learning for various industry revolutions. By contrasting quantum computing with conventional data mining systems, this book offers insights into the transformative...

At present, many video editing software have been created, but what they all have in common is that they require manual work to edit. And it takes a lot of time and the user needs to watch each frame before editing. In this paper, we have developed a program about AI intelligence. The most...

We run experiments of first-price auctions with two groups, by which we directly detect the presence of bidders' loss aversion. Each human bidder bids against three pre-programmed computer bidders -- computers independently draw their values from the uniform distribution and bid their values in...

Newspapers and websites are reporting with strong emphasys the successes of quantum computing, obtained by the new quantum machines. It is therefore natural to ask ourselves some questions about these machines, in particular how do they operate, where are they physically and what is needed for...

In today's world where all tasks can be done with the speed of a single click, autonomous vehicles have come into picture which not only ensures safe self- driving but also an effortless driving experience. The demand of such vehicle tends to grow much more in the near future due to which...

We propose a text-based method for measuring and analyzing the international propagation of uncertainty shocks at the firm level. We apply this method to estimate the impact of Brexit-related uncertainty and find widespread reverberations on listed firms in 81 countries. International firms most...

A quantum computer exhibits a quantum advantage when it can perform a calculation that a classical computer is unable to complete. It follows that a company with a quantum computer would be a monopolist in the market for solving such a calculation if its only competitor was a company with a...

The rising capital income share and declining productivity growth have been welldocumented facts of recent years. This paper argues that one of the forces behind these trends is the evidence-based high obsolescence rates of computer technologies, namely hardware and software, widely used in many...

The Nd doped LaB6 and La doped NdB6 was successfully synthesized from La2O3–B2O3–Mg blends by mechanochemical method. The Nd doped affects on crystal structure and electronic features were studied employing DFT. The high-energy ball milling carried out the synthesis reaction. The process...

This paper develops and estimates cost-of-living indexes (e.g., Fisher and Griliches [1995]) for measuring buyer benefits from technical change in the commercial mainframe computer industry in the 1980s. For this purpose we use a micro-econometric model of demand for product characteristics...

This article presents a speculative philosophical account of money as a computational machine. It does so by leveraging a computational and machinic framework, drawing primarily from the work of Philip Mirowski and Jean Cartelier. The argument is focused on a specific level of abstraction, i.e.,...

This paper examines whether employees who use a computer at work earn a higher wage rate than otherwise similar workers who do not use a computer at work. The analysis primarily relies on data from the Current Population Survey and the High School and Beyond Survey. A variety of statistical...

"This chapter briefly introduces the origins, elements, and fundamental themes of quantum computers. In Section 1.1 we recount how successive observations by different scientists led to the concept of quantum computing. We also review the potential applications that propelled quantum computing...

Toys. The impact of computers on productivity has been examined directly on macro data and indirectly (on wages) using microeconomic data. This study examines the direct impact on the productivity of scholarship by considering how high technology might alter patterns of coauthoring of articles...

This paper examines the output contributions of capital and labor deployed in information systems (IS) at the firm level during the period 1988-91 throughout the business sector, using two different sources of data on these inputs. Our production function estimates suggest that there are...

We examine the factors underlying buyer demand for large Information Technology solutions in order to understand the competitive crash in large scale commercial computing. We examine individual buyer data from two periods. The first is in the mid 1980's, late in the period of a mature and stable...

Innovation was rampant in the computer industry during the late 1960s and the 1970s. Did innovation vastly extend the capabilities of computers or simply reduce the costs of doing the same thing? This question goes to the heart of whether the rate of decline in 'constant-quality' computing...

This research investigates product life cycles in the commercial mainframe computer market. We show that empirical studies conducted at the product level are useful for investigating processes underlying product life cycles. We use hazard models with time-varying covariates to estimate the...

We propose a text-based method for measuring and analyzing the international propagation of uncertainty shocks at the firm level. We apply this method to estimate the impact of Brexit-related uncertainty and find widespread reverberations on listed firms in 81 countries. International firms most...

We use data on imports of computer equipment for a large sample of countries between 1 970 and 1990 to investigate the determinants of computer-technology adoption. We find strong evidence that computer adoption is associated with higher levels of human capital and with manufacturing trade...

In the second-half of the 1990s, the positive impact of information technology on productivity growth for the United States became apparent. The measurement of this productivity improvement depends on hedonic procedures adopted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) and Bureau of Economic...

This paper estimates the relative price sensitivity of individuals' choice of whether to buy computers online versus in retail stores using a new data source on the computer purchase behavior of more than 20,000 people. To estimate the degree of competition between the two channels, the paper...

Are the large measured wage differentials associated with on-the-job computer use productivity gains or the result of unobserved heterogeneity? We examine this issue with three large cross-sectional surveys from Germany. First, we confirm that the estimated wage differentials associated with...
