Full textAbstract:
The rapid proliferation of shared edge computing platforms has enabled application service providers to deploy a wide variety of services with stringent latency and high bandwidth requirements. A key advantage of these platforms is that they provide pay-as-you-go flexibility by charging clients in proportion to their resource usage through short-term contracts. This affords the client significant cost-saving opportunities by dynamically deciding when to host its service on the platform, depending on the changing intensity of requests. A natural policy for our setting is the Time-To-Live (TTL) policy. We show that TTL performs poorly both in the adversarial arrival setting, i.e., in terms of the competitive ratio, and for i.i.d. stochastic arrivals with low arrival rates, irrespective of the value of the TTL timer. We propose an online policy called RetroRenting (RR) and characterize its performance in terms of the competitive ratio. Our results show that RR overcomes the limitations of TTL. In addition, we provide performance guarantees for RR for i.i.d. stochastic arrival processes coupled with negatively associated rent cost sequences and prove that it compares well with the optimal online policy. Further, we conduct simulations using both synthetic and real-world traces to compare the performance of RR with the optimal offline and online policies. The simulations show that the performance of RR is near optimal for all settings considered. Our results illustrate the universality of RR.

Full textAbstract:
Papers in this special issue offer a wide range of political economy and sociological perspectives to explain the development and impacts of short-term rentals (STRs) in European cities. Empirically, they provide insights regarding STR providers, socio-spatial impacts, and regulation. Authors reveal the professionalization of the sector vis-à-vis the connection between STRs and the wider financialization of housing. STRs are predominantly supplied by professional property managers as well as by middle-class individuals for which renting on digital platforms is their main professional activity. Furthermore, the increasing professionalization of hosts and the intrinsic competition among them is largely stimulated by the business model of digital platforms which has progressively favoured professional operators. Understanding how STRs are shaped by platform capitalism helps to explain the socio-spatial impacts of this market as well as why current regulations have not mitigated such impacts. In terms of impacts, contributions to this special issue document processes of displacement, gentrification, and how the penetration of visitors in neighbourhoods is experienced by residents as a process of loss and dispossession. However, due to the lobbying campaigns of professional operators and industry players, regulation has led to the legitimization of this new market rather than to the limitation of the activity. Therefore, the special issue challenges the use of a ‘sharing economy' and ‘peer-to-peer platforms’ as analytical categories, and, instead, provides evidence of why the STR market should be seen as part of the wider expansion of platform capitalism, consolidating the neoliberal and financialized urban paradigm.

Renting of agricultural land is gaining in importance in Canada. The impact of rental on soil conservation and on long-term soil productivity was examined in central southwestern Ontario. Prevailing leasing contracts were short-term, with a minimum of contractual obligations on both parties. A difference in soil management practices was found between owner-operated land and rented land. Both recurrent and nonrecurrent practices upgrading the soil were carried out to a lesser extent on rented than on owner-operated land, while the quality of the rented land was in fact lower and in greater need of ameliorative practices. This resulted in a difference in grain corn yield; the lower yield being obtained from rented land. Key words: Land tenure, tenancy, rental contract, soil conservation, soil productivity, soil quality

Full textAbstract:
The emergence of Airbnb along with an increase in urban tourism has intensified the pressure on urban areas while adding a new dimension to the dynamics of housing distribution, especially in historic cities. These dynamics affect local economies and significantly alter the characteristics of urban spaces, hence the necessity to not only create policies that foster sustainable tourism development but also to advance urban models that explore the relation between Airbnb and the traditional rental and accommodation sector. Through the case of Venice, the present study sheds light on the potential evolution of Airbnb housing in comparison to the traditional rental and homeowner market. In particular, we sought to understand whether a potential equilibrium between these uses exists and if so, at which point in regard to this equilibrium the historic center of Venice is. To tackle this question, methods derived from the field of game theory and specifically evolutionary game theory were used. With the agents (players) being the housing units, the designed theoretical model explored the population dynamics of the housing units in Venice given the three options of homeownership or long-term renting (residential); short term renting or Airbnb (airbnb); and no use (vacant). The findings of our theoretical population game model were validated and discussed with a dataset describing the usage patterns in the city of Venice during the past 20 years. A verification of the outcome through further case studies could eventually provide insights into the future behavior of tourism’s pressure in historic urban areas.

Full textAbstract:
The authors analyze a problem facing a durable product manufacturer who has to manage two “noncompeting” channel systems.ln particular, they focus on the practices of U.S. automakers who distribute new cars through both dealers and rental agencies. In their stylized model, the dealer sells cars to customers and the renter satisfies customers’ short-term needs by renting cars. As a result, in the short run, the rental market does not compete with the dealer's market. However, if the renter eventually sells some of its used cars into the consumer market, then these sales can compete with the dealer's sales of new cars. Using a two-period model, the authors analyze three channel structures that exist in today's auto market. They discuss the implications of their work on the structure of distribution channels in the automobile industry and show how dealer profits and total manufacturer sales depend on the type of channel structure used.

Abstract One of the most prominent tourist attractions in Budapest is the ruin pub district. Here, in ruined, rundown buildings, clubs that are mainly aimed at young foreigners, participants in party tourism, have sprung up like mushrooms. In Inner Erzsébetváros, the housing prices have significantly risen, since investors see the short- or long-term renting of the apartments as a good opportunity. Those who live in the district, however, find the noise of parties to be too loud, while the crowd and the dirt reduces their quality of life. The apartments located near these pubs are so-called “stigmatized properties”, since their value is shaped by the - positive or negative - opinion of the community. Using the method of hedonic analysis, this article examines the question of whether ruin pubs are a blessing or a curse to surrounding apartments, whether their effect increases or, on the contrary, decreases the apartments’ values.

Full textAbstract:
This is an analysis for the management case of Eastern Housing Limited (EHL), Bangladesh. The premise of the case is that EHL having enjoyed market leadership of nearly 40 years has now started facing heat in the real estate market of Bangladesh. EHL has lost its leading position to East West Property Development Pvt. Ltd (EWPDL) which commands 30 per cent market share in the year 2015, whereas EHL holds approximately 20 per cent market share, inclusive of sales across different offerings in the real estate market. The reported compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of EHL (12.77 per cent) in the year 2015, however is much better than the industry (real estate renting and business services) CAGR of 4.4 per cent. But the upcoming years are going to be tough for EHL as competition is likely to intensify. The immediate focus of EHL is how to increase the market share though in long-run EHL wants to sustain and consolidate its position in the market. The analysis starts with situation analysis and ends with recommending future course of action for short-term vis-a-vis long-term perspectives.

Full textAbstract:
The unrestrained and constant inflow of tourists to some cities can provoke the discomfort of residents. The term ?overtourism? describes a condition in which the limits are exceeded to the point that regular everyday urban life suffers. The quantity of visitors and resulting crowds create burdens on the functioning of some city services, and they simultaneously result in a deterioration in the quality of sightseeing. This paper gives a review of the academic literature concerning this issue, especially studies concentrating on cruising and alternative short-term renting. Major complaints raised by locals on the negative impact of tourism are not only about overcrowding, but also include the serious social and economic questions of the endangerment of rights. In order to regulate and mitigate conflicts, preserve identity and allow decent urban life in all its aspects, city governments are forced to introduce some limitations and rules in the sphere of tourism, and also with regard to the real-estate market and urban planning. The level of measures and policies required depend on the type of problem, size of the city and dispersion of the attractions.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose This paper aims to explore the gradual commercialisation of second homes in non-urban locations and identifie a spectrum that ranges from lending to rentals to home exchange. Design/methodology/approach This paper is a conceptual one based on a review of literature relating to the acquisiting and use of secondary residences or “second homes”. Findings This paper observes that the secondary residence is often the object of a material over-investment that is symbolic and mental. The owners never quite leave their main place of residence when in the secondary one. The result is not two complementary spaces, but a hybrid space made up of the interlocking of the two. This paper also concludes that digitalization has made it easier to rent a secondary residence for a short period of time, using for instance the Airbnb platform, thus making it more an object of trade than a second home. From a sustainability perspective, the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to bring to the relatively rapid growth of short-term renting a halt. Further, it may encourage owners to be more psychologically and physically invested in their secondary residence, thereby contributing more to the local economy. Originality/value Few authors have considered the way digital tools can alter the relation with the secondary place of residence.

Impact and Evaluation of Low-Cost Homeownership Policy." Environment and Planning A: Economy and Space 18, no. 7 (1986): 901–11. http://dx.doi.org/10.1068/a180901.
Full textAbstract:
This is the third in a series of four papers describing and evaluating the British Government's policies of privatising housing. In this paper the research on the short-run impact of the low-cost homeownership programme is examined, by looking at the right to buy, shared ownership, improvement for sale, and homesteading, and at starter homes and licence schemes. The purchasers who have benefited from the programme are identified and the reasons for some of the failures of the policy to reach priority groups and areas of need are examined. An evaluation of the programme is made under three headings: the extent to which new investment is generated, the extent to which benefits are restricted to groups in need, and the long-term consequences of expanding homeownership amongst low-income groups. It is concluded that privatisation cannot be achieved without continued state support and regulation.

Full textAbstract:
Efterfrågan och konsumtionen av jordens naturresurser ökar ständigt (Lieder & Rashid 2016). Längs med ett konsumtionsmönster som präglas av en mentalitet där produkter används ett fåtal gånger under en begränsad tidsperiod kommer också konsekvenser (Belk 2014a). Ett gehör på detta har lett till att nya affärsmodeller har börjat uppmärksammas. En affärsmodell av cirkulär karaktär är delningskonsumtion som bland annat inkluderar korttidshyra (Armstrong & Park 2019a). Genom att dela resurser under en kort period kan konsumenter uppleva ekonomiska-, utilitariska- och miljömässiga fördelar utan att äga produkten (Barhdi & Eckhardt 2012; Griffiths & Hwang 2017; Martin 2016). Men är ägandeskap en vän eller fiende gällande mer hållbara konsumtionsmönster? Syftet med denna studie är att observera hur ägandeskap påverkar adopteringen av korttidshyra och vidare observera om olika produktkategorier påverkas på olika sätt. En kvantitativ enkätundersökning genomfördes och resultatet tyder på att ägandeskap har en tendens att påverka adopteringen av korttidshyra sett till de observerade produktkategorierna. Dessutom finns det en indikation på att möbler tillsammans med kläder inte nödvändigtvis är särskilt lämpliga för korttidshyra medan bostäder samt, till viss del, elektronik kan anses vara mera lämpliga.<br>The demand and consumption of the earth's natural resources is constantly increasing (Lieder & Rashid 2016). In combination with a consumption pattern that is characterized by a “take-make-waste” mentality we face anticipated consequences (Belk 2014a). As a response, a new set of business models has begun to get attention. One of these more circular models is collaborative consumption which includes short-term renting (Armstrong & Park 2019a). By sharing resources during a short period, the consumers are able to experience monetary-, utilitarian- and environmental benefits without owning the product (Barhdi & Eckhardt 2012; Griffiths & Hwang 2017; Martin 2016). But is ownership a friend or foe in regards to more sustainable consumption patterns? The purpose of this study is to observe how ownership affects the adoption of short-term renting and further to observe if different product categories are affected differently. By conducting a quantitative online survey, the result shows that there is a tendency for ownership to affect the adoption of short-term renting in the observed categories. Furthermore, there is an indication that furniture along with clothing might not be suitable for short-term renting whilst accommodation, and for some part electronics, might be more suitable due to the degree that ownership affects the intention for adoption.

碩士<br>國立交通大學<br>資訊學院碩士在職專班資訊組<br>98<br>In recent year, internet is very popular , and there are many e-publishers (like e-book, e-news, e-magazine, e-learning.......etc.) setting up in internet in the world.
However, following by the internet blooming, the problem of copy right is indeed challenged directly or indirectly by illegal download and illegal free share which disintegrate the profit, benefit, and the business growing for the e-publishers .
Now! Digital Right Management, DRM can help those e-publishers solve these situations. Basically, Digital Right Management, DRM is used to control the using of special e-service (like e-music, e-book, software, e-file...etc.) by various information technology which could provide e-publishers to prevent illegal download or illegal free share from internet, and which could also provide e-publishers to limit consumers' behavior.
The purpose of Digital Right Management, DRM is focusing on protecting the valuable of e-asset for business and the high profit in the consumer market.
However, the processing of Digital Right may be not easy and take too long time to attract new customers in the low-price consumer market. In our thesis, we provide a model to solve this problem.We figure out a new architecture, SAML-based DRM with a similar concept of Single Sign On, which can help users log-in by an anonymous code.
In final, we will introduce and analyse the development in the future of this technology, which will be based on the concept of SAML-based DRM .

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>國立臺北科技大學<br>管理學院經營管理EMBA專班<br>106<br>Sharing economic dynamiting, car rental and driving services is one of them. As we all know, airport pickup and delivery, traveling with a car, or even the vehicles with which the UBER cooperates can carry passengers through the APP, all belong to the service mode of car rental and driving. These modes of service are based on the first paragraph of Paragraph 1 of Article 100 of the Rules for the Administration of Motor Vehicles and Transport, which stipulate that a taxi is self-driving by a driver and the so-called norms of driving on behalf of the driver in the second paragraph. This type of car rental is commonly known as short-term rental car. (A distinction is made between self-driving car rental with self-driving by renters.)
The main purpose of this study is to assist existing car rental companies or investors interested in this market to explore effective operating models for the short-term car rental and driving operations of the car rental industry. Based on the literature review and statutory research, that is, based on the business model, we designed a business model questionnaire by using the fuzzy Delphi method and clarified, analyzed and set up the short-term car rental operation by using the expert interview method Schema architecture. With a view to meeting government requirements, contributing to employment opportunities and promoting the development of short-term rental car rental business for small car rental operators, the Group has worked out a mode of operation for reference of the short-term rental car rental business.

O propósito deste trabalho consiste na análise dos fatores determinantes dos sistemas e ferramentas de controlo de gestão que presentemente são utilizados pelas empresas que exploram o mercado de alojamento local em Portugal, atendendo à importância recente, mas crescente que este sector tem assumido na economia portuguesa (AHRESP, 2017). Dado o interesse profissional da autora em aprofundar o conhecimento no assunto, o método de investigação utilizado assenta na revisão de literatura sobre o estado de arte das práticas de controlo de gestão no sector, tendo como foco a identificação das necessidades e características especificas do mesmo, que justifiquem as soluções encontradas (Pavlatos, 2021). Seguidamente foi realizado um inquérito que permitiu obter 35 respostas de empresas do setor, onde foi testada a aderência do caso português ao quadro-geral identificado na literatura. A análise permitiu concluir que as empresas do setor privilegiam ferramentas de gestão operacional e de recursos humanos (60%), controlo de custos e proveitos (57,1%) e de otimização dos seus canais de venda e distribuição (68,6%). Por outro lado, evidenciou também que a maior ameaça ao seu desempenho e sucesso futuro se prende com o facto de estas se situarem numa fase precoce no que toca à perceção que detêm de ferramentas de análise da concorrência e sistemas de pricing, aferindo-se que mais de 60% das empresas inquiridas não implementa qualquer ferramenta que execute estas funções. Concluiu-se ainda que 80% das empresas adota sistemas de controlo de gestão até um ano desde o início da sua atividade, sendo influenciadas pelo aumento de funcionários e complexificação das suas estruturas organizacionais.<br>The purpose of this final master’s dissertation is to analyze the determining factors of the management control systems and tools that are currently used by companies that explore the short-term renting market in Portugal, given the recent but growing importance that this sector has assumed in the Portuguese economy (AHRESP, 2017). Given the author's professional interest in deepening knowledge on the subject, the research method used is based on a literature review on the state of the art of management control practices in the sector, focusing on the identification of its specific needs and characteristics, that justify the solutions found (Pavlatos, 2021). Then, a survey was carried out, which allowed 35 responses from companies in the sector to be obtained, where the adherence of the Portuguese case to the general framework identified in the literature was tested. The analysis allowed us to conclude that companies in the sector favor operational and human resources management tools (60%), cost and profit control (57.1%) and optimization of their sales and distribution channels (68.6%). On the other hand, the survey results also highlighted that the biggest threat to the performance and future success of these companies is linked to the fact that they are still at an early stage in terms of their perception of competitive analysis and pricing systems, noting that over 60% of the companies surveyed do not implement any tool that performs these functions. It was also concluded that 80% of companies adopt management control systems up to one year since the start of their activity, being mainly influenced by the increase in the number of employees and the complexity of their organizational structures.

Monte Sinai is a town located in the northwest of the city of Guayaquil, Ecuador, and has about 99,325 hectares. There are some signs that this population is in the process of being transformed into a satellite city, given the increasing number of startups and the formation of small markets to buy and sell raw materials. Also, extreme poverty has increased from 7.9% to 15% from 2010 to 2020. There are approximately 12,152 businesses: cyber shops (spaces for renting internet services by the hour or fraction thereof), grocery stores, canteens, pharmacies, bazaars, hairdressers, chicken restaurants, creative entertainment services, among others. This fact implies an economically active population of 34,584 (there are no rigorous statistics on the population), which means a possibility of a very varied supply at the retail level. The objective of this chapter is to propose a Chamber of Popular Entrepreneurs that will lead to the continuous creation of popular brands. For this goal, the authors analyze the Multiplazas Itinerant Fairs as a strategy for popular micro businesses.

The pragmatic local management of out-of-wedlock pregnancy also relied on the paid work of landladies, midwives, and wet-nurses who made the smooth and even respectable handing of single parenthood possible. Some landladies specialized in short-term rentals to young expectant mothers for whom they provided pre- and post-natal care and arranged midwives and wet-nurses. Young men who did not or could not marry could save their reputations by meeting their paternal responsibilities—renting such a room, being present at the baby’s baptism, and taking custody of the newborn in arrangements that closely replicated what a paternity suit award would usually involve. Midwives also served as medico-legal experts who were gatekeepers to paternity suits as they had to confirm the alleged pregnancy for the courts.

Many would-be parents face quandaries about whether to pay a woman to carry their fetus in her womb as a gestational surrogate—so-called renting wombs—and, if so, what woman. Many prospective mothers cannot carry a fetus themselves due to medical reasons. Single and gay men who want a biological child have no choice but to use a surrogate. Celebrity actresses such as Sarah Jessica Parker have also hired a surrogate to avoid undergoing pregnancy themselves. The market for such surrogates grows enormously, but debates rage about it due to fears of exploiting women as surrogates. US states range considerably in whether they permit, prohibit, or limit surrogacy and in how they enforce whatever laws they have. Like all pregnant women, surrogates face potential short- and long-term risks. Many parents seek gestational surrogates abroad to save money but may face medical and legal risks regarding the pregnancy and bringing the children into the United States.

In our study, we examine the operation of Airbnb among the sharing-based companies. We review the operation of Airbnb, the European and American regulatory systems, and examine the economic results of each regulation (e.g. a limit on the number of short-term housing days). Our initial hypothesis is that a regulatory framework can be developed in Budapest, in which the operation of the company is possible without the lives of the residents becoming impossible. In our study, we try to map the economic implications of short-term housing renting with a simple microeconomic calculation and a spatial simulation. Based on the results of our research, the 120-day restriction on annual short-term rent could eliminate investment-type short-term renting and contribute to the reduction of “party districts” in Budapest. An agreement with Airbnb could increase state tax revenues and create a more level playing field between hotels and short-term housing platforms. Our regulatory framework would largely eliminate the negative externalities associated with Airbnb, but at the same time, the positive returns would be greatly reduced.
