The m-sophistication of a finite binary string x is introduced as a generalization of some parameter in the proof that complexity of complexity is rare. A probabilistic near sufficient statistic of x is given which length is upper bounded by the m-sophistication of x within small additive terms. This shows that m-sophistication is lower bounded by coarse sophistication and upper bounded by soph...

The business value of Internet and Web applications for smalland medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) is dependent upon how such applications “fit” with the strategic orientation of these firms. Based on the strategic alignment of information technology (IT), this study uses a systemic approach to test the contribution of three predictors of IT performance in an organization: the strategic role of I...

We propose a broadly applicable empirical approach to classify individuals as time-consistent versus naive or sophisticated regarding their self-control limitations. Operationalizing our based on nationally representative data reveals that problems are pervasive and most people at least partly aware of limited self-control. Compared naifs, sophisticates have higher IQs, better educated parents,...

Risk management has never been easy. Finding efficient mitigating measures is not always straightforward. Finding measures for cyber crime, however, is a really huge challenge because cyber threats are changing all the time. As the sophistication of these threats is growing, their impact increases. Moreover, society and its economy have become increasingly dependent on information and communica...
