T paper develops a model of dynamic pricing with endogenous intertemporal demand. In the model, there is a monopolist who sells a finite inventory over a finite time horizon. The seller adjusts prices dynamically to maximize revenue. Customers arrive continually over the duration of the selling season. At each point in time, customers may purchase the product at current prices, remain in the ma...

Predicting the behavior of human participants in strategic settings is an important problem in many domains. Most existing work either assumes that participants are perfectly rational, or attempts to directly model each participant’s cognitive processes based on insights from cognitive psychology and experimental economics. In this work, we present an alternative, a deep learning approach that ...

Does altruism and morality lead to socially better outcomes in strategic interactions than selfishness? We shed some light on this complex and non-trivial issue by examining a few canonical strategic interactions played by egoists, altruists and moralists. By altruists, we mean people who do not only care about their own material payoffs but also about those to others, and, by a moralist, we me...

1.1. Motivation. Many modern computer science applications involve autonomous, self-interested agents. It is therefore important for us to consider agents' strategic behavior in modelling the problems, where non-cooperative game theory can be very helpful. Unfortunately, as one can expect, strategic behavior of the agents often make full optimality di cult or impossible for various reasons. Thr...

Data from a survey on digital strategies in the Danish public sector reveals sparse IT-strategy diffusion and limited use of advanced first-mover technologies. The survey contrasts the picture of the public sector as a digital dynamo and challenges the rational views on IT-strategy formulation. Facing incrementally orchestrated strategies, the paper suggests that more attention is given to the ...

Strategic IS planning (SISP) is an important area for IS research. This study develops the SISP research agenda by examining, in a single study, how the SISP approach used, the SISP objectives of organisations and key dimensions of the SISP context relate together with SISP success. A conceptual model is developed based on SISP theory, strategy process theory and organisational theory. The prop...

The paper studies controllability problems for the reachable set of a differential inclusion. These were originally motivated by models of control of a flock of animals. Conditions are derived for the existence or nonexistence of a strategy which confines the reachable set within a given bounded region, at all sufficiently large times. Steering problems and the asymptotic shape of the reachable...

In this paper we examine the sourcing strategies of clothing firms in the developed economies of the UK and Germany in the context of their national institutional framework. We argue that, as a result of their embeddedness in divergent national structures, these firms pursue different sourcing strategies and make different locational choices. We place particular emphasis on the different mix of...

This paper investigates the relation between cognitive abilities and behavior in strategic-form games with the help of a novel experiment. The design allows us first to measure the cognitive abilities of subjects without confound and then to evaluate their impact on behavior in strategic-from games. We find that subjects with better cognitive abilities show more sophisticated behavior and make ...
