Two Sided Markets

We study the diffusion of competing two-sided networks using a differential game framework. We find that whether the winner takes all depends on the participation behaviour of individual agents on both sides of the market. When individual agents tend to participate in only one network, one network will dominate the market. As the tendency for joining multiple networks increases, the possibility for two networks to co-exist in the long-run also increases. Thus the steady-state market share of competing two-sided networks can be very different depending on adopters' choice of "multi-homing" or "single-homing".

This paper presents a new approach for making a four bit priority resolution circuit using current mode winner Take all (WTA) analog computation cells, the winner-takes-all circuit is employed to evaluate the highest input among a set of competing inputs and inhibit the others. This circuit consists of an input stage, a current mode Lazzaros WTA circuit and an output stage consisting of current mirror and load resistor. This circuit is compact, consisting of a total of 28 transistors including the input stage, and a good linearity is observed in response. Simulation of proposed circuit is performed on cadence virtuoso software in 0.18 μm CMOS process technology.

This paper examines the relationship between the kinds of delegate allocation rules used in Democratic presidential primaries (Winner-Take-All, Districted, and Proportional) and the power of various states within the national Democratic party. It demonstrates that these rules are often, in the short run, more important than a state's voters in determining the fate of particular candidates. It shows, in the middle run, that different types of states are clearly favored by different sets of primary regulations. It closes with some speculation about the long-run impact of these tendencies.

The purpose of this article is to ensure free, fair and credible election by adopting electoral reformation, switch from `Winner Take All” (WTA) to Proportional Representation (PR) system. In Bangladesh the election process and election result both have been questioned. Nevertheless, election is one of the key components in ensuring democracy. Particularly the free, fair and credible election is one of the basic and crucial prerequisites and elements of democratic government and governance. Bangladesh, we found an under developed political culture, lack of democratic political organizations, institutions and practices in true sense. All these indicators have been almost failed to institutionalize democracy in Bangladesh. In this backdrop, this paper attempts to explain that, a switch from the current Winner Takes All (WTA) system to Proportional Representation (PR) system can reshape the election system by keeping consistency, because of the fact that the democracy means the rule of the majority but the minority can't be uprooted as well as Proportional Representation (PR) method can help stabilize democracy in Bangladesh.

Take All

The relationships between interest groups, political parties, and elections have always been dynamic, but in recent years change has accelerated in ways that have favored some interests over others. This chapter considers these developments as the result of a variety of factors, the most critical of which are the growth of polarization, a new legal landscape for campaign finance, and new organizational forms. The chapter goes on to suggest, that as bipartisanship has ebbed, elections have become winner-take-all affairs and interest groups are pushed to choose sides. The chapter further suggests that the rise of super PACs is especially notable as wealthy individuals have become increasingly important, single sources of campaign money, supplanting in part traditional interest groups, especially conventional PACs. It concludes that even as sums spent by super PACs and other interest groups have skyrocketed, the impact of their direct spending on persuading voters remains uncertain.

The Olympic Games

The awarding of the Olympic Games to a certain city or the announcement of a city’s Olympic bid may be considered as a news shock that affects agents’ market expectations. A news shock implies potential impacts on the dynamic adjustment process that change not only the volatility but also the long-run steady-state levels of endogenous economic variables. In this study, we contribute to and extend previous researchers’ attempts to empirically test for the Olympic Games as a news shock by implementing full structural models and by matching Olympic hosts and bidders to structurally similar countries.
