American Hometown Renewal Policy Tools and Techniques for Small Town Officials
Gary Mattson, "American Hometown Renewal: Policy Tools and Techniques for Small Town Officials"
English | ISBN: 0765639327 | 2016 | 492 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Before the interstates, Main Street America was the small town's commercial spine and served as the linchpin for community social solidarity. Yet, during the past three decades, a series of economic downturns has left many of the great small cities barely viable. American Hometown Renewal is the first book to combine administrative, budgetary, and economic analysis to examine the economic and fiscal plight currently facing America's small towns. Featuring a blend of theory, applications, and case studies, it provides a comprehensive, single-source textbook covering the key issues facing small town officials in today's uncertain economy.

Agent-Mediated Electronic Commerce. Designing Trading Strategies and Mechanisms for Electronic Markets AMEC and TADA 2012, Val
Agent-Mediated Electronic Commerce. Designing Trading Strategies and Mechanisms for Electronic Markets: AMEC and TADA 2012, Valencia, Spain, June 4th, 2012, Revised Selected Papers By Martin Chapman, Gareth Tyson, Katie Atkinson (auth.), Esther David, Christopher Kiekintveld, Valentin Robu, Onn Shehory, Sebastian Stein (eds.)
2013 | 161 Pages | ISBN: 364240863X | PDF | 3 MB
This volume contains 11 thoroughly refereed and revised papers detailing recent advances in research on designing trading agents and mechanisms for agent-mediated e-commerce. They were originally presented at the Joint Workshop on Trading Agent Design and Analysis (TADA 2012) and Agent-Mediated Electronic Commerce (AMEC 2012) co-located with AAMAS 2012 in Valencia, Spain, in June 2012.The increasing reliance on software agents has created a range of pressing new research challenges, including the design of appropriate agent decision algorithms, approaches for predicting the complex behaviors and interactions of multiple agents, including the computation of equilibria, and the engineering of protocols and mechanisms that ensure electronic markets behave in a stable manner or fulfill other desirable criteria. Drawing upon a diverse range of scientific disciplines, including computer science, economics, artificial intelligence, operations research and game theory, the papers collected in this volume represent a cross-section of recent research and cover topics such as strategies for individual trading agents, the design of markets and interaction protocols between agents, and a variety of applications.

Afghanistan The Next Phase The Next Phase
Shahid Javed Burki, "Afghanistan: The Next Phase: The Next Phase"
English | ISBN: 0522867596 | 2014 | 200 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Afghanistan: The Next Phase takes an in-depth look at the present situation in Afghanistan by placing it in the context of the country's tribal culture, history and demography. It considers its association with Pakistan, with whom it shares not only a long border, but also the Pashtuns, the largest ethnic component in its population and the rise of extremism in many parts of the Sunni world. The country faces an uncertain future as it has yet to develop the institutional structure that could transform it into an inclusive society.
