Markets, Monopoly, and Competition
Nowadays, the field of Industrial Organization is one of the most interesting, exciting, and relevant fields in economics. Industrial Organization relaxes the assumption that firms lack market power. What if firms do have an influence on market prices, on products that are being offered, perhaps even on the way a market is organized? What happens to market outcomes if there are market frictions, such as search or switching costs? What happens if consumers are not fully rational? Can firms take advantage of that, or will such attempts backfire in a competitive environment? These are all questions Professor Marco Haan considers in his research
A Rent-Seeking Model of Voluntary Overcompliance: Addendum (vol 65, pg 313, 2016)
In a previous paper (Haan in Environ Resour Econ, 2016) I missed some relevant literature essentially related to that paper. In this addendum I discuss how two earlier contributions (Graichen et al. in Public Choice 108:273-293, 2001; Liston-Heyes in J Environ Econ Manag 41:1-12, 2001) are related to Haan (Environ Resour Econ, 2016), and how Haan (Environ Resour Econ, 2016) differs from those contributions
MABS validation through repeated execution and data mining analysis
Agent Based Modelling is the most interesting and advanced approach for simulating a complex system: in a social context, the single parts and the whole are often very hard to describe in detail. Besides, there are agent based formalisms which allow to study the emergency of social behaviour with the creation and study of models, known as artificial societies. Thanks to the ever increasing computational power, it's been possible to use such models to create software, based on intelligent agents, which aggregate behaviour is complex and difficult to predict, and can be used in open and distributed systems. Data mining is born in the last decades in order to help users in finding useful knowledge from the otherwise overwhelming amount of data available nowadays from the web and the data collected every day by companies. Data Mining techniques can therefore be the keystone to reveal non-trivial knowledge expressed by the initial assumption used to build the micro-level of the model and the structure of the society of agents that emerged from the simulation
