This paper examines Virtualization Technologies which are popular in modern financial management systems. Many researchers and financial systems administrators have researched the techniques related to utilizing server computational resources. Currently there are many technologies for this...

Certain mechanical shortcomings in engines cannot be ascribed to errors in design or defects in construction. They are due to the fact that it is impossible to design and construct engines in a way that completely eliminates friction between its parts. Friction causes wear and tear that is...

The rise in cyberattacks over the past two decades spurred interest in policies improving cybersecurity. One focus of that research is how to create incentives for software vendors to release updates fixing vulnerabilities in their software. An important consideration that has received far less...

How prevalent are severe software vulnerabilities, how fast do software users respond to the availability of secure versions, and what determines the variance in the installation distribution? Using the largest dataset ever assembled on user updates, tracking server software updates by over...

Many software developers employ bug bounty programs that award a prize for the detection of bugs in their software. We analyze, in a model with asymmetric information, under which conditions a bug bounty program is beneficial for a software developer. In our model, a bug bounty program allows...

Along with many others, we agree that a modern education in statistics needs toincorporate the practical analysis of real datasets, which are usually more complex than the common examples found in standard textbooks. The software used in the teaching of statistics includes standard spreadsheet...

Ein Ziel der Arbeitsgruppe Künstliche Intelligenz1 am Fachbereich Wirtschaftder Hochschule Wismar ist die praktische Anwendung der Methodenund Techniken der K¨unstlichen Intelligenz in der betriebswirtschaftlichenPraxis. Der Trend hin zum Einsatz von Wissen in entsprechendenIT-Lösungen und...

Computerised experiments play a vital part in the modern economic and social sciences. As the technology advances, more complex and sophisticated experiments become feasible. Fast internet connections are widely available today and mobile devices have become capable of running complex graphical...

Forecasting Populations (FPOP) is a microsimulation model (MSM) that is the demographic core of an extensible modeling framework. The framework, with FPOP at its core, enables the geospatial projection of a population under purely demographic processes or under the additional influence of...

SINGUL is a imperfect competition market (without any auctioneer process) price and quantity calculation model. Its algorithm is analogical because it is built from the most realistic (as possible) behavior of the agents of a market. Our model simulates the meeting between the agents. Each agent...
