Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLTs), like Blockchain, could help improve brand safety, consumer privacy and transparency in digital advertising. However, paid advertisements transfer attention, money, and data between three parties: advertiser, consumer, and publisher. Therefore...

To improve operational efficiencies while providing state of the art healthcare services, hospitals rely on IT enabled physician referral systems (IT-PRS). This study examines learning curves in an IT-PRS setting to determine whether agents achieve performance improvements from cumulative...

The emergence of e-mobility is leading to significant changes in the field of mobility. It has the potential to address the issue of climate change and provide personalized technology to various consumers through the use of intelligent technology. As e-mobility is an emerging industry,...

This study aims to explore whether a firm's financial sustainability is enhanced by open innovation especially after a global financial crisis.

This paper studies the interaction between urban spatial equilibrium and commuting congestion dynamics. We present a new monocentric city framework that combines a discrete urban space with multiple Vickrey (1969)-type bottlenecks. The model illustrates commute scheduling patterns by residents...

This paper uses the bottleneck model of Vickrey (1969) to empirically measure the social cost of traffic congestion in the US. Using a detailed trip-level data, we estimate extra travel time over and above hypothetical free-flow travel time, which we call "queuing time", for each average commute...
