Emotion-Based Control of Cooperating Heterogeneous Mobile Robots
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION
, 2002
"... Previous experiences show that it is possible for agents such as robots cooperating asynchronously on a sequential task to enter situations where one robot does not fulfill its obligations in a timely manner due to hardware or planning failure, unanticipated delays, etc., leaving the other robot in ..."

hybrid deliberative/reactive architecture produced the desired emergent cooperative behavior. Data collected at two different public venues illustrate how a dependent agent selects new behaviors (e.g., stop serving, move to intercept the refiller) to compensate for delays from a subordinate agent (e
Monetary Policy in the Open Economy Revisited: Exchange Rate Flexibility and Price Setting Behavior
- REVIEW OF ECONOMIC STUDIES
, 2000
"... This paper develops a welfare-based model of monetary policy in an open economy. We examine the optimal monetary policy under commitment, focusing on the nature of price adjustment in determining policy. We investigate the implications of these policies for exchange-rate flexibility. The traditional ..."

. The traditional approach maintains that exchange rate flexibility is desirable in the presence of real country-specific shocks that require adjustment in relative prices. However, in the light of empirical evidence on nominal price response to exchange-rate changes – specifically, that there appears to be a large
Strong reciprocity and human sociality
- Journal of Theoretical Biology
, 2000
"... Human groups maintain a high level of sociality despite a low level of relatedness among group members. This paper reviews the evidence for an empirically identifiable form of prosocial behavior in humans, which we call ‘strong reciprocity, ’ that may in part explain human sociality. A strong recipr ..."

reciprocator is predisposed to cooperate with others and punish non-cooperators, even when this behavior cannot be justified in terms of extended kinship or reciprocal altruism. We present a simple model, stylized but plausible, of the evolutionary emergence of strong reciprocity. 1

"... Insects are good at cooperatively solving many complex tasks. For example, foraging for food far away from a nest can be solved through relatively simple behaviors in combination with pheromones. As task complexity increases, however, it may become difficult to find individual agent rules which yiel ..."

Free-Riding and Whitewashing in Peer-to-Peer Systems
- ANNUALWORKSHOP ON ECONOMICS AND INFORMATION SECURITY
, 2004
"... We devise a simple model to study the phenomenon of free-riding and the effect of free identities on user behavior in peer-to-peer systems. At the heart of our model is a strategic user of a certain type, an intrinsic and private parameter that reflects the user's generosity. The user decides w ..."

We derive the emerging cooperation level in equilibrium and quantify the effect of providing free-riders with degraded service on the emerging cooperation. We find that this penalty
Self-determination and persistence in a real-life setting: Toward a motivational model of high school dropout.
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,
, 1997
"... The purpose of this study was to propose and test a motivational model of high school dropout. The model posits that teachers, parents, and the school administration's behaviors toward students influence students' perceptions of competence and autonomy. The less autonomy supportive the so ..."

Cooperative behavior and the frequency of social interaction
, 2008
"... We report results from an experiment that examines play in an indefinitely repeated, two-player Prisoner’s Dilemma game. Each experimental session involves N subjects and a sequence of indefinitely repeated games. The main treatment consists of whether agents are matched in fixed pairings or matche ..."

or matched randomly in each indefinitely repeated game. Within the random matching treatment, we elicit player’s strategies and beliefs or vary the information that players have about their opponents. Contrary to a theoretical possibility suggested by Kandori (1992), a cooperative norm does not emerge
The impact of performance asymmetry in emerging multicore architectures
- In Proceedings of the 32nd Annual International Symposium on Computer Architecture
, 2005
"... Performance asymmetry in multicore architectures arises when individual cores have different performance. Building such multicore processors is desirable because many simple cores together provide high parallel performance while a few complex cores ensure high serial performance. However, applicatio ..."
