Monocentric City Redux
This paper argues that centralized employment remains an empirically relevant stylization of midsize U.S. metros. It extends the monocentric model to explicitly include leisure as a source of utility but constrains workers to supply fixed labor hours. Doing so sharpens the marginal disutility from longer commutes. The numerical implementation calibrates traffic congestion to tightly match obser...
متن کاملMasking redux. I: An optimized masking method.
This is the first in a series of two papers on masking. The objective of these papers is to develop a masking protocol that provides valid measures of threshold and is, in general, faster than the plateau method. In this paper, a masking method is developed that can replace the traditional plateau method in most masking situations. This new method is optimized to require fewer masking levels th...

Much more than a technical and practical issue, the digital city has dimensions that are social, cultural, political, ideological, and of course also theoretical. I explore these broader conceptual underpinnings of t...
متن کاملHow many neutrophils are enough (redux, redux)?

However, not all neutropenic individuals develop infections, so the ability to predict this outcome would be a powerful clinical tool. In this issue of the JCI, Malka et al. describe a dynamic system model of neutrophil bactericidal activity that confirms and extends the concept of critical neutrophil ...
متن کاملThe ETTO principle as ETTOing – or Occam’s Razor redux

This trade-off between efficiency and thoroughness, however, applies not only to how people cope with the complexity at work (and at leisure), but also to what scientists do when they try to understand o...
