Week 6 Discussion

Context

In your Managerial Economics textbook, we consider a sequential-move game in which an entrant is considering entering an industry in competition with an incumbent firm (see Figure 15-1). There are several possibilities of how this sequential game will be played. We want to use the Froeb rule of “look ahead and reason back.”

Instructions

For your discussion post, use Figure 15-1 from the textbook as your starting point to address the following:

  • Can, and how does, the entrant succeed? Is the incumbent ever in control of this game?
    • You may wish to review the old game known as Duopoly, as well as Antoine-Augustin Cournot, to help inform your post.

Note: In your discussion posts for this course, do not rely on Wikipedia, Investopedia, or any similar website as a reference or supporting source.
To earn full credit for your discussion, you must complete one post and one follow-up or reply to a classmate. Make sure both the post and the reply focus on the questions asked.

Instructions

The HR department is trying to fill a vacant position for a job with a small talent pool. Valid applications arrive every week or so, and the applicants all seem to bring different levels of expertise. For each applicant, the HR manager gathers information by trying to verify various claims on résumés, but some doubt about fit always lingers when a decision to hire or not to hire is made.

  • Many police officer positions require the applicant to have a college degree even though the tasks of a police officer rarely call upon college course material.

In your discussion post, address the following:

  • Speculate on why police departments do not increase their applicant pool by dropping this requirement and how asymmetric information, moral hazard, and adverse selection are involved?

Applied Sciences homework help

The Prompt
You will watch one Soviet era movie and one contemporary  Russian movie. The goal for this assignment is for you to notice Russian culture. You need to avoid the blockbuster mobster or otherwise violent movies.  They do not show much about real Russian lives.  For guidance on which films to choose, I would choose a Russian’s suggestions.  Here are two links: IMDb  or RBTH , but there are many more out there. I would try YouTube or Google Best Russian and Best Soviet Movies.
Please, try to respond to the following questions for each film (if some of them are not applicable, then add something else to your response):
1. What did you notice about the lifestyles portrayed in the films?
2.  Did you notice the living conditions?
3. What did you learn about work in Russia or in the Soviet Union?
4.  How did the characters spend their free-time?
5.  What did you notice about relationships with parents, spouse, children and friends?
6. What other elements of culture did you notice?
7. Can you compare your life to the lives in the Russian/Soviet films?  What was different?
8.  A broad question:  Now that you have learned various aspects about the Russian culture, what would you tell somebody that asked you what you learned about Russia?

Information Systems homework help

While this weeks topic highlighted the uncertainty of Big Data, the author identified the following as areas for future research.  Pick one of the following for your Research paper:

  • Additional study must be performed on the interactions between each big data characteristic, as they do not exist separately but naturally interact in the real world.
  • The scalability and efficacy of existing analytics techniques being applied to big data must be empirically examined.
  • New techniques and algorithms must be developed in ML and NLP to handle the real-time needs for decisions made based on enormous amounts of data.
  • More work is necessary on how to efficiently model uncertainty in ML and NLP, as well as how to represent uncertainty resulting from big data analytics.
  • Since the CI algorithms are able to find an approximate solution within a reasonable time, they have been used to tackle ML problems and uncertainty challenges in data analytics and process in recent years.

Paper should meet these requirements:

  • Be approximately four to six pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page.
  • Follow APA 7 guidelines. Your paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.
