Data Externality
In economics, an externality is an indirect effect of consumption or production activity on agents other than the originator of such activity. We observe that internet is enabling the design of information services that become smarter more they are used because of the data generated in the process. We give examples from web search to make the notion of data externality concrete and propose that...
متن کاملNear convexity, metric convexity, and convexity
It is shown that a subset of a uniformly convex normed space is nearly convex if and only if its closure is convex. Also, a normed space satisfying a mild completeness property is strictly convex if and only if every metrically convex subset is convex. 1 Classical and constructive mathematics The arguments in this paper conform to constructive mathematics in the sense of Errett Bishop. This mea...
متن کاملMedical innovation and social externality
Healthcare expenditure in the United States has grown and will continue to increase. The increasing healthcare expenditure is to reduce real income as well as to diminish total utility and increase financial stresses. This study argues that the most critical factor that increases healthcare expenditures during last 50 years has been the advent, adoption and diffusion of new medical technologies...
متن کاملThe Maturity and Externality Effects
This study investigates the relationship between information technology (IT) expenditures and national productivity based on a production estimation approach by using pooled time-series country-level data set for the period from 1992 to 2000. The results confirm the findings of earlier studies on country-level IT investment effect, showing IT to have significant and positive effects on national...
متن کاملConvexity and Geodesic Metric Spaces
In this paper, we first present a preliminary study on metric segments and geodesics in metric spaces. Then we recall the concept of d-convexity of sets and functions in the sense of Menger and study some properties of d-convex sets and d-convex functions as well as extreme points and faces of d-convex sets in normed spaces. Finally we study the continuity of d-convex functions in geodesic metr...
