Abstract Counterfeit-related studies have revealed motivational drives for counterfeit consumption. Little is known concerning the implications of consumers’ enduring and normative beliefs about proper standards conduct as determinants patronage. Drawing on Schwartz theory human values, experience literature construal level theory, this research investigates patronage by addressing three crucia...

BACKGROUND Since artesunate (ART) became a vital component of artemisinin (ARM)-based combination therapies for the treatment for malaria, counterfeit ART drugs have spread in regions of Southeast Asia and Africa. The consumption of counterfeit ART drugs has resulted in the death of many patients. Thus, evaluating the quality of ART drugs is needed. There are several methods for quantitating th...

This model takes the vigorous promotion of construction “smart policing” and a modern police system as background, creates data-based, technology-based, vigorously improves analysis mining capabilities public security organs on hot issues counterfeit drug crimes, transforms traditional post-processing passive response methods work to direction pre-prediction active intervention. At same time, d...

The products of graphic design applications leave behind traces of digital information which can be used during a digital forensic investigation in cases where counterfeit documents have been created. This paper analyzes the digital forensics involved in the creation of counterfeit documents. This is achieved by first recognizing the digital forensic artifacts left behind from the use of graphi...

In this paper, the necessity and key questions for detection of counterfeit components is being described. Main goal is to inform professionals from academic as well as from industry sector how to detect counterfeit parts and be confident with evaluation. For these purposes some standard and some more specific methods are described more in detail. Electrolytic capacitors are very often used in ...

The aim of the investigation described here was to examine the differences between genuine and counterfeit pharmaceutical products through the development of an analytical method capable of rigorously identifying the sugar-based excipients. High Performance Anion Exchange Chromatography, coupled to Pulsed Amperometric Detection (HPAEC-PAD), supported by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-...

This paper discusses the evaluation of the electronic cash counterfeit threat scenarios using micro dynamic simulation. This modeling technique provides information needed for the quantification of economic risk exposure in conjunction with other analytical tools. It also allows the evaluation of the effectiveness of various on-chip risk management capabilities. And by generating test data, it ...

I explore a class of probabilistic pairwise matching social settings without formal prices. I nevertheless find that they may be interpreted as implicit markets, equilibrated by probabilities. The seminar focuses on two primary examples: I first explore a perfect foresight equilibrium of a directed search model of journal rejection rates when papers have uncertain quality. I then turn to a appl...
