Abstract:
ABSTRACT To provide efficient incentives, the three components of an incentive system (i.e., performance measurement, rewards, and the allocation of decision rights) need to be balanced against each other. In practice, the authority to decide on these components is frequently distributed across hierarchical levels, thus requiring adjusting centralized decisions with regard to decentralized authority. This paper investigates the centralized design of incentive contracts when decision authority, with respect to the allocation of tasks, is delegated to lower hierarchical levels. It provides an an

This study investigates complementarities between components of the organizational design of franchising networks. We examine three components of governance, rarely distinguished as such in previous studies involving franchising: allocation of decision rights, performance measurement and incentives. We also analyze interdependencies between these variables. In particular, interdependencies seem more evident between the incentive system and the allocation of decision rights to franchisees, and between the incentive system and performance measurement.

Abstract:
Extant literature has emerged testing the relationship between executive compensation and earnings management and many these studies have documented that compensation contracts create strong incentives for management discretionary behavior over financial reporting. Previous studies also pointed out that executive compensation could be simultaneously co-determined with earnings management, suggesting a potential endogeneity problem may exist between discretionary accruals and compensation structure. Using a sample of all Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) listed companies comprising 3,326 fir

Abstract:
Gas usage estimation plays a critical role in various aspects of the power generation and delivery business, including budgeting, resource planning, and environmental preservation. Federated Learning (FL) has demonstrated its potential in enhancing the accuracy and reliability of gas usage estimation by enabling distributedly owned data to be leveraged, while ensuring privacy and confidentiality. However, to effectively motivate stakeholders to contribute their high-quality local data and computational resources for this purpose, incentive mechanism design is key. In this paper, we report our

Abstract:
The complexity required to support the flexibility and scale of networks achievable by Kubernetes (K8s)-based applications leaves them vulnerable to Economic Denial of Sustainability (EDoS) attacks attempting to deprive targets of the financial means to sustain themselves. We develop Markov Decision Process (MDP) based models to reason about autoscaling and the components influencing scaling thresholds, and build atop the MDP a Stackelberg game structure to reason about EDoS attacks on K8s autoscaling and the circumstances under which adversaries inject traffic.

Abstract:
The introduction of advanced technologies by the Industry 4.0 phase at national enterprises is in the initial stages and requires economic support from the state. The system of financial and economic stimulation for the introduction of advanced technologies for smart-industrial development should combine monetary (monetary and credit) and fiscal (tax and budget) incentives. To ensure the validity and optimality of the choice of the list of such measures, it is relevant to build scenarios for the development of national industry using economic and mathematical modelling tools that allow assessi

Abstract:
Significant efforts to incentivize the uptake of energy efficient vehicles (EEVs) are evident across the globe. Given EEV markets are dynamic, and consumer demand may fluctuate in response to incentives, this may also lead to other market forces influencing prices. An analysis of EEV incentives, therefore, must account for the possible endogeneity between demand and pricing. Here we estimate the effects of different types of incentives on the demand and price premiums of a specific group of EEVs: plug-in and conventional hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs).

Abstract:
Abstract Contrary to previous literature we hypothesize that labor’s interest may well—like that of shareholders—aim at securing the long-run survival of the firm. Consequently, employee representatives on the supervisory board could well have an interest in increasing incentive-based compensation to avoid management’s excessive risk taking and short-run oriented decisions. We compile unique panel data on executive compensation over the periods 2006–2011 for 405 listed companies and use a Hausman–Taylor approach to estimate the effect of codetermination on the compensation design.
