Rental Harmony is the problem of assigning rooms in a rented house to tenants with different preferences, and simultaneously splitting rent among them, such that no tenant envies bundle (room+price) given another tenant. Different papers have studied this under two incompatible assumptions: miserly assumption each prefers free room non-free room; quasilinear attributes monetary value room, whic...

I n the past four decades, several technological breakthroughs have made it feasible to sell computing as a service rather than a product. Supercomputers and clustering technologies have made huge amounts of raw computing power available, while time-sharing operating systems have made computing resources a divisible utility. Personal computers have educated generations of home and office comput...

This paper exploits the homogeneity feature of the Singapore private residential condominium market and constructs matched home purchase price and rental price series using the repeated sales method. These matched series allow us to conduct time series analysis to examine the long-term present value relationship in the housing market. Three key findings are obtained. First, we fail to establish...

The lack of land ownership can discourage agricultural technology adoption, yet there is scarce evidence of the impact of land rental contracts on the adoption of improved crop varieties in developing countries. The current study investigates such impact using a nationally representative survey of Ethiopian maize farmers. In contrast to many previous studies, we show in a simple model that cash...

In Service user will outsource their sensitive data storage environment, where be stored and whenever needs data, they access from anywhere anytime using any device connected internet. critical issues in this security. When outsources vendor, vendor may leak user’s...

This paper reviews present day test structures and illustrates how they hav e ev olved to a continuously changing technology. Structures for measuring resistivity, contact resistance, feature dimensions and overlay errors are presented. Test structures for helping to predict yield and Wafer Reliability Measurements (WLR) are also discussed.

Empirical studies on farmland rental rates have predominantly concentrated on modelling conditional means using spatial autoregressive models, where a linear functional form between the response and the covariates is usually assumed. However, if it is in fact non-linear, misspecifying the functional form can adversely affect inference. While mean regression models only allow limited insights in...

With the establishment of the system of public rental housing supply, the vulnerable group would get great benefit in the promotion of social welfare, however, due to the existence of price gap and the imperfection of the public rental housing system, the game relationship formed between the management authority and the security object. Based on the definition to the security object in the publ...

The file caching problem is defined as follows. Given a cache of size k (a positive integer), the goal is to minimize the total retrieval cost for the given sequence of requests to files. A file f has size size(f) (a positive integer) and retrieval cost cost(f) (a non-negative number) for bringing the file into the cache. A miss or fault occurs when the requested file is not in the cache and th...

The study analyses a range of approaches to measuring housing affordability in the Australian private rental market. In particular, it compares traditional consumption-based measures of housing affordability with a new measure of housing affordability based on the Canadian core housing need model, which includes the suitability of the dwelling for the household’s needs as well as its cost. The ...
