There are a multitude of challenges confronting resource-limited, rapidly growing cities that revolve around food-water-energy (FWE) resource issues, and there are a multitude of potential solutions. But such solutions often address one or just a few challenges without regard to their impacts on...

In a continuous-time setting where a risk-averse agent controls the drift of an output process driven by a Brownian motion, optimal contracts are linear in the terminal output; this result is well-known in a setting with moral hazard and under stronger assumptions adverse selection. We show that...

В статье обоснована целесообразность использования многоагентного имитационного моделирования в исследовании динамики сложных экономических систем....

The article substantiates expediency of use of the multi-agent simulation modelling in the study of dynamics of complex economic systems. It shows a possibility to use cellular automata in construction of simulation economic models, particularly models of consumers' behaviour, in principle. It...

Water sharing has become a serious problem in France. One of the objectives of 1992 and 2000 directives proposed by the European Union was to reduce both the frequency and the extent of water conflicts through the establishment of multilateral negotiations, where different public and private...
